T400 and Windows 7 x64
I looked for the Windows 7 x64 drivers on Lenovo's site but could only find drivers for Vista.
The drivers I need are:
Intel 4500MHD
SATA chipset driver - I want to enable ACHI and install the chipset driver during the windows install as well. After installation, I'd like to install the chipset software as well.
Intel 5100 WIFI - This will probably come with a default driver but I'd like to install the latest if available
Ethernet driver
Should I download from Lenovo or the manufacturer and where exactly would I download these drivers from?

Not everything is there still so you might have to use some vista or generic 7 drivers until it is fully supported.

FWIW, Windows 7 has drivers for all of these out-of-the-box—though the Intel video driver sucks a bit.

Re: T400 and Windows 7 x64
I know but I want the latest versions. Should I get the drivers from Lenovo or from the manufacturers directly?

Re: T400 and Windows 7 x64
Intel Core i7 for notebooks was announced today and dell has already integrated them into their notebooks.
When will Lenovo do this?
