Update on my experiences with Lenovo W520 Drivers and Windows 8

After I installed Windows 8 RTM I still had two devices missing drivers. I have made a little progress

  • Base System Device - was the Ricoh PCIe SDXC/MMC Host controller I used this Win 8 beta driver
  • Unknown driver – seems to be the Lenovo Power Management devices. However the  Win 8 Beta driver  fails to install. I had to use the Windows 7 driver, installed OK and seems to show the right information in the tool tray, but in Device Manager it still says the unknown driver.

I guess I really need to wait until Lenovo ship their release drivers
