    Maybe, maybe not. If they are Vista only, the won't work. I'd check the Sony website and see if they offer any XP drivers for that notebook. (That's something that should've been done before installing XP.)

    Sony don't offer XP only versions, so might just have to see what you can find. I guess the question is, what NEEDS a driver that XP doesn't already work?
