XP drivers to Amilo Xi 2428

Hey!

I bought an Amilo Xi 2428 a couple of weeks ago and the first thing I did was to put Win Xp on it because I don't like Vista. I have a slight problem finding drivers for XP to all hardware in it and can't get much help from Fujitsu since they don't support anything else than Vista. I have found most of them but what I can't seem to find after extensive searching is the ones for the Remote (ITE CIR) that comes with and the Memory card reader. Anyone know any place I can find the drivers or have any tip? Thank you for all help.

 

Ironic enough I think I found the last two .

EDIT: I spoke too soon. The Remote driver that seemed to be working at first was no match. So still looking for the driver for the remote (ACPI\ITE8709\5&CB7B051&0).

 

Hi Car'a'carn

Anyone who knows if this is possible for the 2550? Just got one and I don't like Vista either

 

Hello there
Yes, same problem, drivers and install XP. The link from exoristos gave a blank.
Yes, another link is found. Read the page, and click where it says "her", and you will find drivers to XP for 2428, at least that what they say. I have not tried it yet, but thought of sharing it as it has caused me alot of time and trouble.
Regards
Mike

What I can personally say is that in my Amilo Xi 2428 with Windows XP Pro SP2 installed, the only things not working are the Turbo Memory (needs Vista) and the Remote (needs Media Center). Both the Webcam and the Bluetooth work perfectly.

 

ZAzula Iparxi periptosi na mou stilis tous drivers gia ta XP gia to 2428 mou giati kapies apo tis dieuthisis parapano den doulevoun.....euxaristo

 

i have the xi2528 and like you i wanted to get xp instead of vista . But now after couple of monthes i say that vista is amazing and better than xp , just make sure that u have service pack 1 and to turn user account control off and to set the laptop to high preformance from the power options even if you are not on the battery , just try and tell me if u noticed a difference .

 

Hi everyone ....
I already installed win xp SP2 into my amilo
it seems ok to me except that device manager which showes three uninstalled devices >> mas storage controller
PCI memory controller
Unknow device

is it normal or there is somthing missing?

 

Hi!

I recently decided to install xp on my amilo, and thanks to this thread I have gotten quite far. I've managed to complete the installation, but when I try to start the computer I get this error:

0x0000007B (0xBACCF524, 0xC0000034, 0x00000000, 0x00000000)

After a bit of googling I found something about AHCI, and that it should be disabled. But I can't figure out how! Does anyone know how to do it, or do you know another solution to this problem?

Thanks a lot!
