    Hey guys I just got my buddy Win 7 on his laptop and the only thing I cannot get running is the overclock button. What do I do so we can press the button where you customize the lights and OC?

    No clue here.

    That's all controlled by Direct Console.

    I don't know if the overclocking works in Windows 7, but everything else should.

    Did you try downloading Direct Console for Windows 7 on ASUS website?

    Oh... I think you have to install the drivers in a certain order. Search around forum. There is a post about it.
