various system tray icons grayed out

[bigsur]

hello, i have win 7 rc running on an asus f3jp laptop.

a few of my system tray icons are grayed out, but acually working. ==> my wireless bars are all grey, but if i move mouse over it it shows all green and connected . . . my audo speaker icon and battery are also greyed out . . but are both fully working fine.

im thinking this may be a driver problem?? i am gong to try to find the newest vista drivers i can for this.

ALSO - kinda a general windows 7 question, when i am updating drivers and no 7 drivers are avail, should i choose the vista or xp? im thinking vista b/c of closer architecture . . but im not sure

Thanks!!!

That assumption usually works for me, but I'd back it up with a web search, paying attention to any forum thread results.
