    I have just bought a new HP Pavillion dv6560ee. I need to use a software which only runs on Windows XP not Vista. But this machine comes with Windows Vista. So I installed Windows XP with dual boot. Now I have some issues with the windowx XP, Vista is working fine;

    -- No sound, I have tried to install different drives for the sound card, but it doesnt work. I dont know what to do next.

    -- There is nVidia 8400 128 MB graphic card in the machine but 3D accelarator doesnt seens to work.

    -- While downloading a file from internet, my system become so slow, even mouse stop moving. While surfing the net and page is opening, system stop responding.

    Any help?????????????
