Ok, last night I transplanted an R51 Intel graphics-based motherboard into my T41. Things went swimmingly well. Everything works, however I cannot seem to find a way to get the graphics drivers installed. Running Windows 7 Pro.
Anyone able to provision help? Upon searching, I found some threads with driver links but the links are from circa 2009 and are now nonfunctional.

IBM's Hollerith punch-card machine... That's all I have to say.

Yep. The latest version available there crashed out on me. Am currently using a slightly older revision at the moment but was hoping to get the latest version installed.RealBlackStuff wrote:Have you tried our Forum's Drivers link at the top of this page?

Having video driver issues on my t41p as well with windows 7.
I have downloaded and installed the latest driver from the Lenovo support site but I can't get Aero theme to work and I get a score of 1.0 in the WEI.
I uninstall the driver and let windows find the proper driver and it does successfully, Aero theme works fine and the WEI score is 3.7, but after a while screen starts to flicker (especially on the top of the screen). Uninstall the driver and the flickering goes away...
I don't know what to do next. I do want Aero theme working to be honest...
