Has anyone installed windows 7 on their S96J machine? If so please leave your thoughts. Also, does windows 7, asus, or VBI have any support drivers in order for windows 7 to run properly on our systems?

Thank you
-Mem

Most Vista drivers will also work for Windows 7, but I would suggest first searching for drivers via Windows Update after installation. On my Asus Z71V, ATK0100 (Asus' ACPI driver) is one of the drivers that can be found and installed that way. I needed to manually install the hotkey drivers, however.
