    Same here with my xp install. Wondering if the 1 sata driver under 'vos1400xp' will correct this. It appears this was for the ''matrix sata,etc" during install. I attempted to install to correct ..........didn't install as other drivers. Xp really nice after trying vista for a few days. Interested in what comes of this.

    I used the drivers listed in the Inspiron-1420-XP thread to get XP running on my Vostro 1400, as Dell's website does not have a complete XP driver set. Everything working 100% now.

    If you think you missed a driver, have a look:

    The Ricoh Driver did the trick.

    Thanks,
