    Hey so I just "downgraded" my laptop from vista to xp and I'm missing one thing. Vista had mobility center, but XP doesn't have anything like that. Are there any 3rd party apps that are similar where I can set up my power options and manage my battery life? BTW im running a HP laptop. (NC8430) Thanks in advance...
