    Just noticed this update on the website. It is under the 32 bit driver section only. Someone try it out and let us know if it fixes anything. I am at work so I cant try it tell later.

    Thanks for the fast reply. That is good to know. I got my G50V a week ago and it had 204. I looked on Asus website 2 days ago and they only had the 204 update. Thought by chance this would be a big update.

    still waiting on a new beta... there was supposedly a new driver for the keyboard coming too, but I haven't heard anything since 207 which came right after I took delivery of my g50v-a2

    I just downloaded the new 205 version and tried it. So far the keyboard lag issue seems solved. I will keep on using the keyboard today and see if the problem is really solved.

    I hope they get it out soon. I did a custom reload and installed everything except for the ATK stuff and it runs awesome. It seems everytime I installed the ATK drivers is would always run slow. I have read rumors that the new bios and ATK drivers should fix that. If anyone has info on that please enlighten us.

    Is there anything in the works for users with Vista 64? I'm getting tired of typing like a snail. :(
