    Hey Mannix,

    I attempting to do something similar (except that I am only trying to run XP, w/o the dual-boot Vista) on the laptop and just wanted to find out how those Tx3 drivers worked for you.

    The problems I have left are as follows:

    Fn keys don't work
    Audio, with general/reference realtek drivers (from their site) is too soft to hear

    Plus my comp still doesn't recognize the following hardware devices:

    PCI Device
    SM Bus Controller
    Unknown Device

    Any help/thoughts would be greatly appreciated! Thanks in advance!
