    I just bought it and want to install XP(i'm starting programming school&have to use XP) but when i try to install,notebook doesnt see the harddisk drives.

    I found lots of topics on how to make it but all files are deleted!

    And this post

    http://forum.notebookreview.com/showpost.php?p=2097089&postcount=95

    So I couldnt find drivers,if anybody have,can somebody provide links (a new guide forexample)

    PS:I have 2 days to give it back,if i cant find out,i'm thinking to give it back and buy dell M1530 (there is a very nice topic at there about how to install XP over Vista)

    And if i start to install and mess up,can i change it back to the first time (like i bought it first time)with the recovory cd?(sorry,never used Vista before,so i dont know anything about it)

    You could check the G1S resource thread, or the owner's lounge (both linked in the Info Booth), they should have info about installing XP.

    Yes, recovery disk can be used to restore the system to factory settings.
