    Well, I'm getting my m50 soon, and i have a question, if I downgrade from Vista to XP, will it cause any bugs, or problems with the laptop, because I am very concerned about it.

    No issues with XP on the M50Sv. The only thing is you can't use the infrared receiver.

    infrared receiver is usually for a remote. Most people don't usually use it so it shouldn't be a problem. Many notebooks don't even have it either.

    Yup, you can change between Vista and XP anytime you want. It won't void any warranties.
