    I'm currently running my notebook dual booted with Win7 and Vista (64 bit), unfortunately I cant install a driver for the m860tu. It says the driver for the Base system device is not installed. I can't find one online, and if its in the driver cd that came with the comp then I don't know how to install it.

    Another thing, I haven't managed to get Battlefield 2142 to work, when i open it normally it says it encountered an error and needs to close, when I troubleshoot it and open it with winxp sp2 it says the disc is not in the drive (it is) I am not sure whether this is because i don't have the proper driver for the M860tu

    Thanks for any help

    I think it's time for a sticky on how to use the search function :p. The question has been answered numerous time.

    Well I have the same problem on xpsp3 and I can tell you it's the cardreader.
    I don't know why but both the original and the updated drivers won't install.

    I know I'm late but maybe you guys found a solution?

    Pop in the driver cd, update driver, browse on my computer, select the D: drive or whatever letter your optical drive is that has the driver cd, done.
