So I still love Windows 7.  It is easily the best OS Microsoft has released, head and shoulders above those before it (with the possible exception of DOS 6.22). 

However...

My Lenovo Thinkpad W700 seems to still be missing some drivers.  I downloaded a Windows7 Drivers file from Lenovo's site but it doesn't seem to help.  According to the Device Manager I am missing drivers for:

- Other Devices

     - Base System Device

     - Base System Device

     - PCI Serial Port

     - PCI Simple Communications Controller

This isn't a huge deal BUT I have no sound coming from out of da sound card.  It seems that the sound card is not communicating with (and vice versa) the motherboard due to the lack of drivers for the simple communications controller.

Any other Thinkpad users out there with a similar ish?  Can you help?  Thanks in advance!
