    Hey thanks for the link. I'm about to return my HP dv6500t for a 1520 and plan to install XP, so these are perfect. :)

    Kind of funny neither the 1505 or the 1520 are listed in the compatibility section

    OH I wasn't sayin that Osserpse, I was simply stating it wasn't listed. That's cool they worked for you. And good to know in case I decide to switch back to XP. Hopefully by then Dell will have pulled their head out of their... and released official ones...

    THANK YOU VERY MUCH! i love u.

    so my 1520 is on xp running good now, and lightflux, i had trouble with my audio, it was downloaded but bluetooth hands-free audio was there for some reason, so i went into device settings and disabled that option. it then worked fine!

    Why do the drivers work for some people and not others?
