    Hello,

    I have a Sony SZ660N/C and I recently downgraded to WinXP.

    I would like to know where I can find the 256mb SSD in windows.

    Someone told me in another thread that I just have to go to My computer -> manage -> Storage -> removable storage, and it should appear there.

    Unfortunately it does not show up there nor does it show up in Disk Management.

    If anyone knows how I can see the 256mb SSD that would be great. Do I need to install some drivers or something?

    BIOS update is all i can think of or update your drivers as you mentioned through device manager in control panel...

    Is that a 256mb solid state drive?? o_O

    If you're referring to the built-in flash memory on the harddisk drive, those cannot be accessed in Windows XP. It only works in Windows Vista.

    Oh is that so? Hmm...ok, kinda a bummer.

    So it's completely useless in Win XP?
