So after reading around and having 5 of these 6420's(4 of them are ATG) notebooks kicking around. I decided to upgrade some of them to windows 8, but I'm running into the issue of my screen dimming to the point that it shuts down. I can't find the drivers that are suggested to install in the specific order.

Is it alright to install the windows 7 drivers? And does anyone of have them all downloaded and numbered in order? I'm having a hard time finding them all on dells website. I am running them all in 64bit.
