    The hotkey is just so you have a graphical pop up, the functions still work fine without it. For me the only thing that is missing is the ability to change the color of they keyboard, fortunately the blue is my favorite anyway. I find it a lot easier to just uninstall the hotkey. Especially for my power settings.

    I am trying to install the 6.0045 hotkey but I am getting errors such as "Error 1316.A Network error occurred while attempting to read from the file C:\Users\Brian\Downloads\06Hotkey\Hotkey6.0044.msi"

    *Update* So I later uninstalled 6.0044 and then installed 6.0045 and the installation worked that time.

    By the way does your Wifi switch still work? (Fn + F11) On mine the wifi switch stopped working after I closed either hotkey.exe or PowerBiosServer.exe.

    Confirmed. I guess the only thing that doesn't work is the keyboard backlight configuration.

    I uninstalled the hotkey app because sometimes I need to mute the speaker (Fn + F3) while in full screen game and it switched to Desktop just to display the hotkey popup. That's kinda annoying :\

    Looks like this thread is pretty abandoned... anyone willing to update it? I did some research on the subject and I found the latest drivers, for most of them (I have a P150HM with i7-2670QM and Quadro FX 2800M):

    Intel Chipset - 9.3.1.1007 WHQL
    Intel RST - 11.6.0.1030 WHQL
    Intel MEI - 8.1.10.1300
    Renesas USB 3.0 - 2.1.36.0
    Realtek HD Audio - 6.0.1.6738 (and proper THX software?)
    JMicron Card Reader - JMB38X_WinDrv_R1.00.72.04 _WHQL
    Synaptics Touchpad -
    nVIDIA Drivers - 305.93-quadro-notebook-win7-winvista-64bit-international-whql
    Clevo Hotkey Utility -
    Realtek RTL8188CE Wireless LAN 802.11n COMBO PCI-E NIC -
    Fingerprint Scanner drivers and software - 1.3.0.214
    Camera - Bison Cam, NB Pro 9.2.1.71.42
    Motorola Bluetooth - 3.0.2.288

    Did I missed anything?

    Apologies if this is a question that's been asked before.

    I read the AMD drivers had been improved - "never settle" and all that.

    The mobility driver on this page

    AMD Catalyst

    Still gives me the error :

    The version of your graphics card is not supported - or words to that effect.

    Does this mean if want to install AMD drivers for my 7970M I need to manually install the desktop drivers and not use the mobility tool?

    Is the mobility tool ever going to be smart enough to detect Enduro enabled laptops like mine and install the new AMD driver?

    try Station-Drivers: le site de drivers, bios, firmwares avec un forum d'aide, thats where most of the postings here are based on ;)

    as for hotkey, check the download section on clevo´s website. with each new laptop model they present there, they usually also update the hotkey application. so its a bit of work to search through the whole database and find the most current version. during my last check i came up with 6.0069, but maybe theres a new one out now. happy searching! :p :D

    cheers

    Fellas, n00b here, I get the idea that the driver list on the first page is a little outdated... Is it being maintained at all or should I read 92 pages of posts to scrounge and get a fresh batch?

    p.s. the new hotkey is a nice find, thanks.

    Pretty easy to find the latest drivers. Just go to clevo.com.tw or sagernotebooks.com. Or even MySn.de, they all host the latest drivers. And if you just want to find the latest yourself, use common sense. Get em from the manufacturers....

    Should I get the Windows 8 drivers from the Clevo site or from Sagers? They both have drivers now for Windows 8.

    I was messing with it as well. It does not work from what I can tell at all. I'm still looking for a way to get rid of the damn pop up icons on capslock and numlock. They drive me crazy, I was hoping that 8.0 would fix it, but I couldn't get it to work at all just like Floridan79.

    Anyone else have any luck with it?

    Yeah they are probably mad too since they already released hotkey that works just fine with W8.

    Why do you need them? They are already installed by default.

    Oh BTW, not only does the hotkey work amazing for Windows 8, just found something else that is awesome.

    Even at bootup, the keyboard color you choose in hotkey is the color it boots with. No more blue then switch to your choice.

    Isn't it infuriating that the drivers work so awesome in Win8?
