These are all of the most recent drivers posted on asus.com.tw as well as other hardware manufacturers’ sites. Each file will be marked as to where it comes from.
I omitted the Video drivers for the GeForce 9700m GT. They change constantly, so I will provide the links to each file located at laptopvideo2go.com, along with my results from testing each driver.

These are the drivers for Vista x86 & x64. I will soon add the XP drivers to the list once I finish compiling the package.
