Clean install. What programs should I put back on?

#1 Post by Soundchasr » Fri Jul 23, 2010 12:24 pm

I just did a clean install of Win7 on my T410. All the drivers are in and I've loaded the following Lenovo programs:
-Power Manager
-UntraNav Utility
-Active Protection

Are there any others that are good to have that I should install? I looked for Presentation Director but couldn't find it......


Thanks!!

I'd also add the Hotkey feratures driver for OSD and the battery firmware update.

System update is also handy for applying misc firmware and driver updates. -

How about Access Connections and Rescue/Recovery? I find those two useful as well.

Dang. That sucks cause I'm having some real issues working with the T410 in the courtroom setting when hooked up to a projector and switch. May have to start a new thread on that......
