1. Windows 7 Serial Port Communication Problems

Solved:
The drivers on Lenovo's site worked, but they were not obvious. Thanks to focher for pointing them out.
Symptoms:
Upon unpacking my new Lenovo X200 tablet (well, my daughter's new Lenovo X200 tablet) I copied the hard drive contents to an external drive and then loaded the 64-bit version of Windows 7 Build 7100. I formatted the primary partition and installed Win7 there.
After installation some devices were not recognzed. I attached to my network via an Ethernet cable and was able to install some of the drivers by right-clicking and having Win7 search for them on the internet. However it was not able to find the drivers for three devices.

• PCI Serial Port
• PCI Simple Communications Controller
• Network Controller

Resolution:
These problems were fixed by these drivers:
