    When i bought this laptop i planned on installing windows x64. I havn't installed it yet because i'm in fear of finding drivers. Does anyone know where i can get drivers for this model that will make the sound, card reader, wirless network, and display work fine?

    Also, i'm really thinking about putting the 32 bit version of xp pro on my machine untill i locate these drivers. Can anyone tell me if xp pro runs better the media center edition that is already installed on this thing?

    Thanks all for feedback.

    I'm not sure about Gateway, but most manufacturers have drivers on their sites for all of their computers.
