Newbie! XP on amilo Pi3540

Postby istar » Wed Mar 04, 2009 1:12 pm

i m new on this laptop. i ve only done some formats on pcs. never changed vista to xp.
can any1 tell me which may be the problems from the installation?
is there a unique driver for each device on xp or i will have to turn off some devices(eg card readers,webcam,audio etc.)?

So far nobody posted any experiences about XP on the Pi 3540.
To install XP you will first have to integrate a driver for your S-ATA-controller into your XP-CD following this how-to:
http://www.amilo-forum.com/topic,26,-Installation-of-Windows-XP-Home-Pro-PE-FAQs.html

Then you will have to find the drivers for all the components (chipset, graphics, ethernet...). This will be easier if you read out your hardware on your current Vista-installation.
You can use Everest to do so. Please attach a report in HTML/XML-format if you need any help to find the drivers.
