    got a dv6152eu wanna reformat my laptop its been acting weird and has been lagging a bit so i wanna try and start with vista home premium.

    i wanna get this but why is it so cheap? http://amazon.co.uk/gp/product/B000...&pf_rd_t=101&pf_rd_p=139042391&pf_rd_i=468294

    i have two options i can either:

    repartition my hard drive so i have vista on one and xp on the other

    or

    i just install over xp. have hp provided vista-compatible drivers?

    which do you recommend?
