Sony Cr Xp Downgrade

Hey,
I am using my cr notebook with Xp installed. I installed all the drivers, and most of them work fine...

But, I have problem with my mic. I definitely works, but I need to speak very loud into it for someone to hear me, whereas in Vista it worked perfectly fine.
Is there a solution for this or should I just give it up?

Man, I never thought I would get more battery life with vista than with xp...
In fact that shouldn't be true, but that's just the it appears to be on my cr.

I can go to 3:15 with vista
and 2:40 with xp

I am the only one expriencing this?

P.S. by the way I installed the vaio power management, which works...and still the same results after configuring the maximum battery profile...

Will we ever get the brightness work on our cr?

 

Waiting on sony...and they'll probably never create brightness...and yes it was shocking to me too when vista got about 30 mins more battery than xp...

Try looking for different camera/sound drivers...some have had success with just trying different ones out. Im sure you've checked the other CR downgrade threads.

 

I really did check other threads, but I haven't seen anyone getting any success with camera or sound.
