    Trying to 'clean install' XP on my SZ760 and have run into a couple roadblocks that didn't exist when doing this on my SZ650.My question leads into the difference between 'Model Locked' and 'Unlocked' drivers that Sony list on the USA Support Site.

    First I noticed for the 'Locked' XP drivers there's no 'Chipset' driver listed but the 'Unlocked' XP drivers have both a 'Chipset' and 'Sata' driver listed.

    Does anyone know if the Chipset driver in the Model Locked drivers is included in one of the Utilities or something ? I assume you need the chipset driver first and foremost correct ?
