    Hi, as the title suggests it's a case of download and go rather than mucking about with the .inf's.

    Didn't see any power saving features in there but it's late and I'm tired :p

    Thanks for the info. 7.2 also installs OK for me on my X60plus, and I also see no PowerPlay and the battery drain rate still sits at around 25W.

    Do you see any PowerPlay on your X60 plus? I don't have it on mine.

    Unfortunately, I don't see either, it's a shame, but it performs better than version 8.283.0.0 on gaming.
