    Hello!

    Around late fall of last year I bought a fully upgraded IdeaPad Y510 (the older model, not the Y530), but it only came with 32-bit Vista Home. Even the One-Touch Recovery button on my laptop installs 32-bit Vista Home. This wasn't such a big deal, since I had a copy of 64-bit Vista Home from when I built my desktop. So I installed it, but when I went to Lenovo's website, I couldn't find the right drivers to install. Either they were labeled for 32-bit OS or weren't labeled at all, but didn't work when I downloaded them. My question is, what do I download?

    Heres my build:

    Lenovo Y510
    4gb Ram
    320 gb hdd
    Intel Centrino T5750 2.0ghz
    Nvidia 8600m GT 256mb GDDR3

    What do I download? Links maybe? Would this be better asked of the Lenovo support?

    Thanks!
