    Hi,

    I was thinking about getting this new laptop from bestbuy but i notice it comes with vista. I was wondering if i install XP then would all the drivers work correctly?

    thanks

    if you hunt down the drivers, and go through numerous hours of labor. why not just use vista? whats wrong with vista? have you even tried vista?
