    I have an XP cd sitting here, and from the review

    http://forum.notebookreview.com/showthread.php?t=273404

    it seems the drivers CD has many of the needed drivers, but looking at the path names, it seems many of them are.. vista drivers? not a nub to computers, but never downgraded a notebook before, so.. being cautious

    checking the Asus forums I found this thread


    http://vip.asus.com/forum/view.aspx...c&id=20080806094952937&page=1&SLanguage=en-us

    and this is the laptop I bought, for reference

    Not asking to have my hand held here, just need some direction.

    Thanks in advance.
