When trying to run the driver programs the machine tells me it can't find correct drivers for this type of HW.

Any hints and ideas are welcome
try these drivers from lenovo website (for vista and XP). uninstall the video and audio drivers you have installed before. no idea which is which but from website there are two audio drivers (Audio Driver I and Audio Driver II). i guess you just have to install both. for the video there are also two (Nvidia or Intel) so try it both and uninstall what you do not need.
