 I. LOVE. WIN7.

No crashes yet, wonderful performance. I actually saw an increase in FPS in TF2 and Vanguard.

Only issue I came across is my PCI wireless adapter had to be replaced due to 32-bit driver issues.

I just installed Windows 7 and I've got a few questions:

I'm running this on a T400 laptop.

When I check my device manager, under the display section, it shows me my two cards that I have. The 3400 HD and the intel integrated card. The problem is that the 3400 HD has a ! beside it. How do I get the drivers for this?

On this note, can I switch video cards within the operating system like I was able to do with Vista?

Also, what antivirus/firewall do people recommend with this operating system that works?

edit: the error that im getting for the driver is this: This device cannot start. (Code 10)

I unsure of how laptops BIOS work, but would you need to disable the onboard? Also, you should just need to update the drivers for the 3400HD from ATI's website.
