    I am trying to install XP on my new M15x to replace Vista. The XP installation program cannot recognize my harddrive. I did a little bit search. It looks like a need to have the driver file and make a customized XP installation disc. I cannot find the driver in my hive at Alienware support.

    Can someone share the driver? or show me how to get it? Thanks

    Click on:
    AREA-51 M15X 15" WUXGA W/CAM SIL-RIP-PNT
    if you got the Ripley. Skullcaps would be similar. Once you click on it, scroll down a little and you should see it.
