    Hi.

    I am trying to find drivers for my VAIO VPCz138 for XP64bit version.

    Does anyone know where to get them, or at least tell me the details of the installed hardware, so I can search fro the appropriate drivers?

    If you want, you can always run Win 7 professional and that automatically comes with Win XP mode... which is just a VM for you to run XP programs that havent been converted to run in Win 7 yet... That's a better option than running your entire computer on XP :/

    Couldn't agree more. Leave XP for the netbooks with little to no horsepower.. and even then I'd still run 7.
