    Hello everybody.

    I've read the entire thread "*** AW - x64 Vista & Win7 Drivers and Utilities *** " , and i couldn't find an answer to my problem.

    Well, i did all steps related there, install order for notebook utitlies an stuff...but my brightness fn keys and some other special buttons just don't work. I get volume working, but brightness does never work. Also, there's a problem that it keeps telling me my battery isn't original and it'll go into hibernate mode. I already know i can solve it by disabling the ISB Utility in msconfig, but it would interfere with bright fn buttons right ?

    Anyway, i'm just asking for help heh, is there anything else i should do ? Perhaps, install another video driver, or something else ?

    I'm doing a clean win 7 - x64 install, no sp's included, nothing. Just x7-x64, original disc.

    Thanks in advance

    Pablo.

    You can close the thread, sorry. I fixed it.

    I installed SFEP, then installed the NVIDIA Driver (manually install) and things started to work.

    Thanks in advance.
