    If you are installing W7, you really need to follow the guide for that. If you don't install the drivers in a particular set order, you will be chasing yourself for weeks trying to get everything working. We have a thread dedicated to installing w7 on a 29. You should look it up and follow that to a T.

    Just my 2 cents...

    It establishes the proper driver installation order / procedures, though. ;)
