    Anyone know where to get Win 7 drivers for the 9262.

    Drivers for chipset, camera, sound, etc?

    Sager's site only has Vista. I know they are compatible but was wondering if anyone had Win 7 versions.

    I'm pretty sure if Windows 7 doesn't install pretty much everything for you, then the Vista x64 drivers should function with Win7 x64.

    I see you have a 901C and Win 7. Are you saying that the only driver that you needed to install was for the video card?

    Just getting my ducks in a row for a Win 7 install this weekend.

    Windows 7 does have all the drivers expect for the video.Later I installed the Vista driver because I was not able to make the mikrofon work. Windows 7 is quite stable and runs very smooth.

    I am using a d901c with windows 7 x64 Ultimate here and there are no drivers for Webcam or chipset :S

    Wonder if http://www.clevo.com.tw/en/index.asp will release win7 drivers? They don't update the ones they have for sometime now.

    They are not going to release any more drivers for the D901C , but the Vista Drivers should work without problems.

    They want to push the new models. There is no more gain for them to support the older models. Clevo is rather small and probably they do not have resources. Until now everything seems to work ok on win7 with the Vista drivers so no reason to look for more.

    When I installed windows 7 using a straight up pro 64 disk. It had drivers for the RAID built in, and bluetooth.
    I had to get video drivers from LV2Go, audio drivers from realtek's site. (LV2Go is also a nice fast mirror), webcam drivers, media/game button drivers, tv tuner drivers, matrox drivers if running RAID/AHCI mode, and you also need drivers for the card reader.

    I had no issues using Vista drivers although I haven't actually tried the TV tuner yet as the only copy I have of the drives is on a CD in a box that I don't want to dig out. I know where the box is and I know the box has Vista 32/64 drivers on a separate CD, so it should work.

    I have gotten the TV tuner to work in XP64 and maybe Windows 7 beta 64.

    I got my webcam working on my 9262 by installing the windows 7 drivers for the np5790. They are on Sager's website and it works.

    Everything else seems perfectly fine. I did the upgrade instead of the fresh install and it works perfectly, it could even be a little faster, and it's certainly a little lighter on resources.
