I have started downloading them and now most of my hardware is up and running. I am obviously going to save them and make my own utilities disc. I don't know if that helps you with your new issue, but I at least glad you're making progress!
Why these companies don't give you a machine on which you make the desicions about what you want rather than supporting one OS only I will never know. Obviously they only make computers for people who want to browse the net and play games, not for people who have bigger techno-ambitions.
My problems seem to be over-ish now, but let me know how you get on and if I can suggest anything, I will!
May the force be with us all!

yeah i did the same thing but the drivers weren't available for xp, i installed all the drivers from the v6000 series and it works great, other than the graphics drivers which lags the screen and basically makes it un-usable, if anyone can help me find the driver for the nvidia go 6100 for xp that would be great, i googled it and downloaded a couple but they didn't work
