Anyone got a link to compatible drivers/software for the LCD on the old school G15?

I haven't been able to find anything yet. Although I haven't tried too hard.

It'd be nice if it got support for Win7 though.

Install the Vista drivers as an administrator in compatibility mode.

I thought I tried that and it screamed because it was a 32 bit program with known compatibility issues and win7 didn't like that.
I will try again today at lunchtime.
Thanks

Sure enough admin install worked.
Not sure why I missed that last time around, but Thanks!

Deuce271,

Windows 7 drivers are still in development as the operating system is as well. Windows Vista drivers should be sufficient in the mean time. However, for anyone still having trouble, Microsoft does have an official Windows 7 RC Support Forum located here http://tinyurl.com/9fhdl5 . It is supported by product specialists as well as engineers and support teams.
