    Hello!
    I've bought N100 with preloaded Windows Vista Basic, but because some hardware that need Win XP SP1, I've moved to XP SP1.
    It took me pretty long to install all those drivers (I can't tell that it was pleasure :) ), everything works except Ricoh 5-in-1 Cardreader.

    When I put a card into the slot, the led blinks two times and nothing happens (on Lenovo Ricoh drivers - it probably doesn't work, because these drivers are for SP2).

    I've also tried NEC Ricoh drivers, but then when I put SD card, it wants Secure Digital Storage Device driver - I don't know how to get it.

    So, that's my first problem. Now, the second - I've got one unknown device in Hardware Manager. All I know that it's on Intel(R) 82801GBM (ICH-7M) LPC Interface Controller - 27B9. It may be something for SD card reader, but I am not sure.

    OK, with help of one of this forum user's, I've managed to run the SD card!

    So, now my problem is the unknown device. All I know that it's on Intel(R) 82801GBM (ICH-7M) LPC Interface Controller - 27B9.
