    I have found very well written guides for creating an unattended installation disc for Xp and Vista but geared towards certain platforms. Not really created for Vista with an Acer laptop.

    I am willing to search for drivers and such if someone may give me an idea as to how to begin. Should I integrate all hardware drivers? Motherboard, sata controller.. and so on?

    I have followed Stallen's guide (clean install vista) a bit but keep getting lost when it comes to knowing the right drivers to integrate and finding them for an Acer laptop.

    Any guidance? Or a point in a direction?

    This would be so great. :)

    Acer 5100-5674
