    Which drivers do I need to download for everything to work perfectly?

    Any links to the drivers?

    win 7 should install everything automatically. everything will work but it might not install the empowering technology and some other software.

    but when you get your laptop (in vista) go to the erecovery and make a drivers and apps disc then just use that for the remaining drivers that 7 dosnt find / install

    You can create ISOs instead of DVDs, see Timeline Tweaks.
