    Hi,
    I just received windows 7 professional x86 (32 bit) and was wondering if there would be any driver issues using vista 32bit drivers from the asus site for my S96J laptop.

    Thank you for the responses.

    I installed Windows 7 RC 7100 build on my Asus laptop and it found everything but my drivers for my trackpad!

    Found my finger print reader, bluetooth, audio software, wireless, webcam all without me doing anything other than downloading an easy to find driver for the trackpad!!

    I am impressed and happy it is not going to be a pain come October 23rd when my copy comes!

    Good luck with yours!!
