    Has anyone managed to put Windows Xp on one of these machines
    including all the drivers and had no problems ?
    If so I would like to some help in doing this if anyone can instruct me ?
    Or if anyone can tell me of where i can download all the latest drivers for
    this machine from.
    Don't get me wrong Vista is good,but I don't want all the built in software
    that comes with the recovery discs & yes I can uninstall all that I don't want
    but if you've ever done it its time consuming :eek:
    I'm basically looking for a basic installation disc whether it be vista or xp, plus the correct drivers for the machine to work correctly. :)
    Thanks for reading.
