    I have been wondering if it's possible for vista era laptops to use windows 7. So far I couldn't find any drivers for it.

    I know tm4720 was built for vista but it is a really competent machine strong enough to use windows 7. To me windows vista was not an option; it's either xp or win 7.

    Uh, Yeah, just use Windows Updates to find the drivers, and if that find's nothing, use your Vista drivers. Any machine that can run Windows Vista, can run Windows 7.
