Do you have the Power Management driver, Lenovo System Interface driver and Hotkey driver installed? Check this link. There you can find the latest Lenovo drivers for Windows 7. In particular, one of the ultranav drivers (the first one is for synaptics touch/track-pads) and the ultranav utility may work for you.

Thanks, the link did work.
I have not installed PM yet, should I? win7 seems to be doing it well.
ATI from that page did not work also...., no aero :S oh well.

Hot key driver- didnt work for me...in the display settings somewhere the on screen display dialog isnt working, cannot select color.

I'll play around with the rest.

Glad that the ultranav driver worked out for you. Installing Power Manager is a matter of taste or need, but I didn´t mean Power Manager, I meant the Power Management Driver. If I remember correctly, it´s needed for the hotkey features to work properly. Same goes for Lenovo System Interface driver. BTW, it was sort of expected that the Lenovo ATI driver for Windows 7 won´t work for your system :)
Isn´there any graphics driver available for you via windows update? If not, you may want to consider installing some modded driver. I can´t say for sure that it will work for your specific system but it is definitely worth a shot.
