    Does anyone know if there are drivers for the MSI 1029 on vista. Specifically I am wondering if there are vista drivers for the wireless/bluetooth combo card made by MSI. Thanks, Rob

    They are available on the msi website, this is a different model but the wireless card is the same(6855B)

    If you need any other vista drivers just search your model on the msi site...

    Thanks for the reply. I tried searching the model number but didnt see anything for the wireless card. That link should help. Also, are there updated graphics driver's for vista? I don't seem to see them there either?

    Here is the link for your exact model, there are vista drivers but none for the X700 VGA. I just checked the driver package we have here for this model and the driver notes state that the chipset and X700 driver are packaged with vista. Have you tried letting vista install/search for the driver? You can also check windows update and there may be a later version available.....

    Thanks for the response. I haven't actually installed vista yet. I just wanted to make sure everything would work before I proceeded with the install.
