    I just picked up a Vaio SZ750 from Best Buy clearance for $1100, and so far its a decent computer but I have an issue. It comes preloaded with so much crap and junk that it would take me an entire day to uninstall all of it, and it would probably leave tons of remnants behind. I would really like to just wipe it all and install Vista x64, and upgrade to 4GB of RAM.

    How difficult is this with the Vaio SZ750 with regards to finding all of the drivers and such? Is everything pretty much available, and where should I look for the drivers? Sony's website really doesn't make much mention of 64 bit drivers. Thanks
