    Download drivers directly from Microsoft Update Catalog.

    The windows 7 drivers are kind of sucky from my experience . Use the vista ones.

    @jcms, i tried win 7 a few weeks ago and used vista drivers then with no probs. just reinstalled latest version and thought, great, now there are proper drivers. still, they work now and laptopvideo2go are generally good and tweaked fast. whats your driver, is it signed (need for blu-ray)

    DOn't know if its drivers or W7, but my fps is worse in W7. Had to install Vista drivers, since those experimental W7 didn't recognize hardware or smth. I got 9800 GS
