    ok just thought i would make a last check before i install vista
    on my e1705

    do i really need to download any drivers for vista before i install so that things will work when i install it ? [ i will be doing a clean install ]

    im going to be making a seperate partition for vista on my hd
    this should work right dual booting and everything?

    Dual booting works good. Most of the drivers are included or vista will download automatically (unless itz really a specific one). if you have soundblaster software edition you may have to get it from dell. I mine i didn't have to download any driver (vista home premium) though itz for E1505. Hope there won't be much difference.
