I have looked for a updated video driver for the 770Z on IBM
Website and did not find one. I don't know what you mean by
generic driver. This laptop is new to me, but since I have a
ghost backup...I do feel at ease to try most anything. I really
like the ThinkPad. Even though I have other computers, I plan
to use this Thinkpad as my desktop replacement. It should be
easier to update my main programs on one computer for work and
home on the laptop.

Thanks for your help!
