    why not go straight to the 301.xx series drivers? no modded inf needed there.

    O really? I just assumed that all of the drivers not in Sager's support center needed a modded .inf because that is what happened when I got the laptop last summer. I will try it when I get home, thanks.

    Technology changes faster than you can imagine, and solutions are usually released fairly quickly.

    The 296.1 Verde drivers should be fine, just be sure you select the "Custom" installation and check the box to "Perform a Clean Installation" when you install the drivers.

    Some folks here have been using the BETA drivers, and stated they are working fine, but I usually recommend playing it safe and using the WHQL drivers.
