    Hey all, just a quick question. I did a fresh install on my new m14x on a Momentus XT drive (way faster) and I have everything installed except for the Camera app, and the SM bus controller driver. I can't for the life of me figure out what driver this is on the resource disk. Also looking for the original Camera app but no biggie if I can't get it. Thanks in advance for any help :)

    For the camera app, did you get the Disk? I called AW and they sent me the disk. Call them up and see if they'll send it to you.
