Windows 7 64-bit and T60 Drivers

[DarkScythe]

Hello,

I've decided to give the Windows 7 Beta a go on my T60.
I'm not entirely sure what drivers to install though. I assume I can just use the Vista ones, but I'm testing the 64-bit version of Windows 7, so I'm not sure if there's any distinction between that and the 32-bit version. All I know is 32-bit XP right now, so this is a pretty big jump in my knowledge. Windows has offered a couple drivers supposedly from Lenovo and ATI, but I'm not sure whether I should trust them or try to figure out what to get on the IBM Driver Matrix page.

Anyone have any ideas?

Thanks.

PS-
Thinkpad model/specs are in my sig, I simply swapped out my hard drive for the beta.

I´m currently writing this on my T60p running windows 7 beta 64bit. The new os is sweet, clean and so far as good as vista 64 bit. I used the system update software from lenovo do download drivers and software without any particular problems. The SU didn´t download keyboard customization program, but a manual install fixed this. Active protection, fingerprint, ati drivers, adobe cs3, all MS software, etc. is working properly; so far nothing to declare!

on my 60p active protection won't work for me and neither will the FN-buttons for adjusting the screen brightness. the on screen display of these buttons won't install either, says something about the registry. tried installing as admin, no luck.

I activated the function buttons with the equivalent 32-bit vista drivers. Just manually download the from Lenovos website and do an install.

These are the files:
Hotkey: http://www-307.ibm.com/pc/support/site. ... MIGR-68000
Kbd custom: http://www-307.ibm.com/pc/support/site. ... MIGR-67288

The rest: http://www-307.ibm.com/pc/support/site. ... MIGR-62928

Visit http://www-307.ibm.com/pc/support/site. ... -BETA.html
for hard drive active protection 32/64 bit driver.

I successfully installed all drivers that work on vista 64 bit.

i did someone get the hotkey driver working. i downloaded the auto utility (the name escapes me right now) and it installed some system driver not directly related to the hotkey driver and it started working after that (awesome!). thanks for the beta links i was hoping to get APS working

i have an intermittent problem when i try to adjust brightness via the Fn+ keys. it doesn't work. anyone else having issues?

How about Lenovo System Interface driver?

Lenovo System Interface driver installed successfully. I used latest System Update and installed all but some vista 64 patches that probably came with Windows 7 or are not neccessery.

I usually don´t use Access Connections, so can´t say anything there.

So far I could install VS2008, ACS3, itunes 64-bit, MSO2007 and use them in my work with no crashes, hangups, or any other peculiarities.
