I have an X41 (non-tablet) and a beta copy of Windows 7, which is still working. The beta is version 7000.
I can't seem to make the system accept anything but the Windows base VGA video driver.
I have Intel’s Windows 7 video driver for Windows 7 but it won't install for some reason. I was wondering if anyone has (a) the same problem or (b) a work around.
Failing that, has anyone installed a Windows 7 final version and got Intel's video driver (with acceleration for DVDs) to work with their X41?

Re: X41 (Intel) Video Drivers
Are you sure you downloaded the correct drivers?
Re: X41 (Intel) Video Drivers
Turns out the, 915GM/GMS,910GML X41 video drivers haven't been updated for either Vista or Windows 7, at least in the Win 7 beta I have. The answer is to install them in XP compatibility mode in the programs properties.
Once installed there is some flickering towards the end of the boot, and things slowed down just a little bit, but at least I have video acceleration now and DVDs play just fine.
