    Hi all,

    Just got a TX2510US on X-mas and want to do a clean vista install on it using the guide on the sticky of this forum. I have used it before on another HP some time ago, and worked perfectly.

    But my concern is with all the features this PC has and if that requires any special care. i.e. worried if I will be able to get the drivers+software required to run all the fingerprint reader, touch-screen, pen, multimedia buttons, etc.

    I have saved the SWSetup folder that the guide recommends, but by looking at it, doesnt seem clear if it does contains all the drivers+software required. Plus I dont have a good idea of what is what, so in risk of puting back in the PC those bloatwares I want to get rid in the first place.

    Btw, does anyone has a list of the bloatware to get rid off? ...I remember from when I bought my dv9000 that there were soem lists indicating the bloatwares to be removed... anyone has anything like that for this model?

    I have seen some of you comment on making a clean install in this system, and wanted to know of your experience and if there is anything special to take care of.

    Thanks!
