We recently received a bunch of T410s's with the switchable graphics option however we still run Windows XP in our office (switching to 7 in the summer). We would like to give these computers out to our users, however there does not appear to be a Windows XP video driver for the T410s. On out T400's with switchable graphics we just set the BIOS to Discrete Graphics and installed a video driver from Lenovo with no issues. However with the T410s's there simply isn't an XP video driver at all. We tried using drivers from the regular T410 and also drivers straight form NVIDIA's website but still no luck. What gives? Has Lenovo already dropped support for XP on some models?

We realize we can just wait and give these computers out in the summer with Windows7 loaded but that means they will jsut sit in a closet gathering dust for the next few months.

Thanks.

The driver should be available on Lenovo.com soon. You can contact Lenovo level 2 support and they should be able to provide the driver. Level 1 support will say "gee that doesn't exist" but it does, just ask to escalate the case. When it does become available it will show here: http://www-307.ibm.com/pc/support/site. ... MIGR-74582

Run XP virtualized until you can get rid of the beast
