Windows 7 drivers problem on Lenovo ThinkPad SL300
I am currently on Lenovo ThinkPad SL300 Notebook. I recently downloaded Windows 7. When I installed it, I had an extra partition called "recovery" it was approx. 6GB among which 5.5GB was used. Where can I find drivers for this laptop? Also can I take recovery of this partition?
I installed Windows 7 RC1 but my buttons on the side and the fingerprint reader do not work and also bluetooth, super-3g card and the GPS are useless.

For recovery, I would say you just need to know how stuff works. What are you afraid of? Do you think that your data might get lost with Windows 7 installation?
For drivers for Bluetooth, super 3G and GPS, you will find the appropriate drivers on Lenovo's website. Just go for it.

Yes + No.
Actually, this laptop does not belongs to me. So I don't want to take the chance. Moreover how do I access the recovery partition? Is there any program that I can use?
For drivers, I already installed it from Lenovo, but there's nothing.

For recovery, just follow the below procedure. but keep in mind, this is not a tested method.
1. Restart your computer
2. When the Thinkpad logo appears, press with a Lenovo Care button, F11 or Enter. This will open the Recovery.
For drivers, I suppose you can even use the Vista compatible one. Hope it works.
