Shrunken Link

I'm not sure that link will work, From the www.lenovo.com main page click on Support & download. Enter your machine type and click go. Then in the top click on Downloads and drivers.

Mod Edit: Shrunk exceedingly long link.

Go to the "Downloads & Drivers" page on the Lenovo web site for your particular ThinkPad model and they should all be there.

Cheers,

Did I miss something? I don't see a driver for the fingerprint reader, just a registry update for it.

For my T41, there are a few new drivers for Vista only or with a Vista component. There looked to be one registry patch for USB. I am as up-to-date as possible for XP, so there is nothing to do here.

There appeared to be a number of registry patches for the T60 link shown.

Based on my experience with lots of individual clients, I think issuing registry patches just says the whole Vista game is simply to early.

So far, I've installed all the new software on this T60p, and it seems stable.

I'm still running the beta drivers for the fingerprint reader...and for the Hotkey features.

At the rate Lenovo is realeasing drivers, maybe we will see the recovery software this week?!?!

Does anyone know when the official drivers will be released?

I'm still waiting for full bluetooth support so I can start synching my IPAC via bluetooth.

They where released yesterday, there is a Bluetooth firmware update and new drivers, at the link above. In theory you should be able to do it now.

Have drivers been released for the T43 also? I can't seem to see anything updated and under bluetooth Vista is not even an option.
