    I've been using np5793 drivers for my np5790, so I think most of it is the same. Besides, the np5793 drivers are more up to date; my card reader wouldn't work at all with the np5790 ones (bsod on card insert) but works great with the np5793 ones. *shrugs*

    okay they are all the same MINUS the cam ones. the 5793 has a 2.0mp camera but the 5791 has a 1.3mp camera. i had issues getting the 2.0 ones working. anyone else get the newer camera ones running??

    other than that they are all the same thing

    Yah know, zfactor, methinks that Sager/Clevo should put you on a paid position on their design team.
