    There is a thread on PB in "other manufacturers" forum.

    You have to identify your notebook on PB or NEC (most if not all PB notebooks are made by NEC) website. I would expect they have the drivers for download.

    Hi all, I am posting with regards to the Packard Bell GN45-032 laptop. I have searched everywhere I can think of for a review of the above laptop, or the GN45 series,but with no result.

    If anyone owns one, or know any info. it would be greatly appreciated as I am looking to buy it.

    Thanks
