I recently got a Toshiba laptop with Windows Vista but I don't really like it, so I want to install Windows XP on it. I'm concerned about the drivers because I can't find any on Toshiba's site. Any advice? Thanks a lot

    Basically there are only a few ways to do what you are asking. First, you could have whoever you bought it from ask the manufacturer to downgrade the computer to XP. The other way is to ask the manufacturer themselves if they will swap your computer for one with XP or give you media for such.

    There is something that you do what to keep in mind though, if you change the OS on your computer you might not be able to get support anymore. Basically if you get a computer with a specific OS on it the computer manufacturer notes the serial number and what OS is on it and if that changes they typically stop supporting it (you would have to revert to the installed OS for the system).
