    Running xp on my new 5920g and ran into some problems
    Can anyone help me out.
    I can't get the hd dvd to read any hd dvd's . Is there a special hd dvd driver and does it work in xp

    I can't get the wireless n to connect to my Linksys wrt600n. Only connects on wireless A not draft N on the 5ghz band. I know it's not a issue with my router cause my wifes macbook connects on N.

    Try the latest Intel Wireless drivers. See my post below this thread:

    Can't help you with HD-DVD as my 5920G doesn't come with one but I'd suggest download a trial copy of Nero and then run Nero Infotool, check under HD Readiness and see what you are missing.
