So when I recently saw that there was a couple of new ROM builds 08, I installed the ASUS Update tool again and installed 0905. I had previously updated the BIOS and all was well that time. Nah, I am a nerd and want the latest and greatest. The Problem OK, so 'If it ain't broke, don't fix it'. Windows 7 runs like a dream on the machine, even with Aero transparency turned on. At the time of this initial installation, I also saw that ASUS released a 0703 ROM BIOS upgrade and so I downloaded the ASUS Update windows based tool and the ROM image and upgraded the BIOS.Įverything was fine with the machine working perfectly. Note: The Super Hybrid Engine software controls CPU and FSB clock speeds and optimises battery life.

By installing the Windows XP versions of the drivers for the touchpad and audio card as well as the Super Hybrid Engine software I was able to get all the function key controls working. However, I noticed that the multi-touch and scrolling functions of the touchpad as well as the keyboard function key controls for volume, etc. Once this driver was installed the Device Manager had drivers for all the components of the hardware. Windows 7 had drivers for everything except one unknown device.Įventually, Windows 7's Problem Report utility suggested that I download a driver for the ACPI (Advanced Configuration and Power Interface).

It came with Windows XP and the first thing I did was to install Windows 7 Ultimate onto it. You can check out the overview and specifications on the ASUSTek site. It is a beautiful looking machine with a 10' screen, long battery life and a reasonable amount of power for running Office applications and browsing the internet, etc. Introduction I have an netbook (in piano black) and I love it.

I decided to post about it on the blog to hopefully make life easier for anyone else 'out there' who has the same problem and is searching for answers. This is a bit of a saga, so bear with me. This issue is not related to Microsoft Dynamics GP, but caused me a lot of frustration and wasted time.
