Y480 Windows 8 Drivers

Hi, I have installed Windows 8 RTM in my Lenovo Ideapad Y480. Most of the drivers for windows 7 worked but some does not such as the drivers for touchpad, bluetooth, onekey recovery, and energy management. Is there any updated drivers for Windows 8? Thanks a lot. I really need those drivers.

Re: Y480 Windows 8 Drivers

Have you checked here: http://support.lenovo.com/en_US/downloads/detail.page?DocID=HT072084

These are the beta drivers that Lenovo has made available. Each category lists which models are supported. No one is likely to see any "gold" drivers until win8 goes GA.

 

Cheers.

Re: Y480 Windows 8 Drivers

The problems that you have with the driver are known issues due to compatibility with windows 8, you can find this information here www.lenovo.com/support/windows8. I think Lenovo will fix this issues and release the software and driver as soon they finish testing around Windows 8 release October 26. You can check official webpage for updates and Resources, there have good information… www.lenovo.com/support/windows8

You can download a working driver for the touchpad from the Synaptics website. Here it is http://www.synaptics.com/resources/drivers
