    hello. I own a ML900 toughbook (From Motorola and it’s almost the same). I had Xp on it and I want to go to Vista. It has a C2Duo and 1 GB ram and a 120gb HDD. If anyone can help me here that would be nice.

    The link above has all the drivers you need. I just checked and they have drivers for Windows XP 32bit, Windows Vista 32 & 64bit, Windows 7 32 & 64bit, Windows 8 32 & 64bit. Now you just need to find out what hardware you have in it. Have you installed Vista yet ?

    Almost. I have to find my totally not burned CD. I currently have no clue where it is but my true Vista Business install CD is somewhere. I might create a disk for that and drivers.

    Why I was wondering is before you install Vista go into "Device Manager" and see what hardware devices are in it. This will make it a little easier when you go looking for drivers.
