    So I have my dad's Asus Z71V lying around and I'm trying to figure out if the laptop use a PATA or SATA hard drive. I guess I can always take it apart and figure it out, but I don't have a screw driver so it's best that I ask.


    Also, can someone tell me where I can get the Geforce Go 6600 video card drives for Vista? I can't seem to find it anywhere. Where can I get Vista drivers for the laptop? I think it has enough horsepower to run Vista once I upgrade the RAM to 2GB.
