    Ok this has been a major pain trying to do this. So far, I have been able to get the wireless driver working, but I have not been able to get a driver for the ATI HD 5650 or the Realtek sound working. Does anyone have any ideas? I don't want to plunk down another 150 for Windows 7 Professional to emulate XP.

    Thanks!
