    I recently bought an hp pavilion dv6646us. I downgraded to xp before I saved all the drivers. (I know it was stupid). Long story short, my ethernet and various other drivers are gone. I've been to the hp site but nothing seems to work. The winflash says I don't have the right system. When I double checked my bios it said that my notebook is a dv6500. I don't know what to do. I'm thinking of reinstalling vista, just to get the drivers to recognize. Any suggestions?

    Here are the specs:
    Processor brand: AMD
    Processor type: Turion 64 X2
    Processor speed: 1.90GHz
    Video card: NVIDIA GeForce Go 7150M
    Motherboard: Unknown
