    I bought this HP laptop notebook model DV2718 US and it came with Windows Vista Home Premium (32)bit OS. I hate Vista and have reinstalled Windows XP pro on it. I am trying to find drivers for this model laptop for Windows Xp. I am not having much luck. Any HELP would be appreciated!!!

    Try going onto www.driverguide.com. I once needed to find an audio driver for my lenovo desktop after an clean install. But the driver provided on the lenovo support page simply won't install. So I ended up downloading a realtek one from that website and it worked perfectly.
