It would be helpfull to the development team if you could ensure you post which Lenovo system you are using when posting in the individual threads, or even better, add this information to your signature.

2 requests, if possible

1. When these are updated, could you add the date updated?
2. Can you post the order in which these should be installed, if that is important?

Thanks

Fair requests;

1. As they are released the Mod team will update the list as soon as possible. I've just updated it with ThinkVantage GPS. If members notice a new addition there is no reason not to grasp the initiative and start a thread, as PanEuropean did with the others, we can always add a link afterwards to the list above.

2. A good question, why don't you start a new thread on this subject to leave this thread free for announcements and questions such as yours. I'm sure members will have tried different orders with good / bad results / experiences.

Regards

AMT driver has been added to the page.

Also, is it possible to request the content managers for the Windows 7 driver page to add a program version number and a release date?

A changelog would be nice but not essential

Just added the AMT & Sierra MC5725 drivers and re-named Sierra MC8775.

edit; for clarity - I added them to the list above and created new threads after seeing them on the website.

Are we not going to discuss that the Ericsson F3507g driver has vanished / or been changed into a Sierra Wireless driver ?!

[bradtipp]

Any chance of a video driver with HDMI sound?

Warning:

Some of the links in the Lenovo W7 beta drivers section are now pointing to newly released Vista drivers instead of W7 drivers.  Specifically, Power manager and UltraNav.  There may be others that are screwed up as well.  I didn't check them all.
