X60 Video Driver? [HELP!]

#1 Post by ilych » Sun Apr 12, 2009 7:04 pm

Info: I reformatted my hard drive, and I'm trying to install all the drivers I need. I'm using Windows XP Pro.

Problem: The video driver on the drivers website for X60 does not work

Error Message: When I click on setup.exe, I receive the following error message: "This computer does not meet the minimum requirements for installing this software. Setup will exit."

Questions:
1. What video driver do I have anyway? How do I check?
2. Where can I download the driver for my video driver?
(3. Why doesn't the video driver on the website work?)

Thanks in advance for any help.

I have just had a look at X60 driver matrix, and I don´t see any video driver for XP. You could try two things though:
1. Obtaining video driver via windows update;
2. Installing the video driver for Windows Vista 32-bit in case this is different from the driver you have already attempted to install.

The correct video driver filename for X60 is 7ld140ww.exe, not 7ld150ww.exe. You can download this driver here: http://driverdl.lenovo.com.cn/think/dow ... d140ww.exe

Was wondering if you were able to use the 7ld140ww.exe driver listed above. Last week I had the same problem you're having except with a T60, and the 7ld140ww.exe driver also would not work. Going directly to Intel's download didn't work, only MS Update had a driver that worked. I have an x60s arriving any minute so am curious.

Thanks
