thanks for the prompt and thorough response diabase.

my situation is that i bought this laptop with the intention of dedicating it to a specific dj software. the program runs ok on vista, however, it is recommended that you use xp because it has the ability to run at a lower latency level. now ive cleared out all the bloatware by reformatting with a fresh install of vista and reinstalled all the drivers. the only thing i plan on running on this laptop is this program so i optimized the system by turning off unnecessary services and visual effects. but even with these changes, there are a couple issues with the software that i can only blame on vista.

i would start to attempt downgrading right now, but im using it for a gig this weekend and i wouldnt want to risk not having everything stable.

i do plan on doing it eventually when im not so pressed for time, so i thank you for all the info youve been putting up. im trying to understand everything youve done so far, but im sure ill have some question when i finally attempt it. im sure many people are attempting to do this at this point so i hope that some sort of definitive guide will pop up in the future (wishful thinking? probably)

Sorry, no sound driver yet, but I'm in the middle of studing for Calculus finals, so I haven't spent a lot of time yet on it.

Would someone who still has Vista intalled please post a list of what that operating system says are the non-microsoft drivers on gateway t1620? It's geting to the point where I'm doubting the formal documentation of the hardware, so if no one posts a list, I'll dump images of what I've done so far, and remount the old Vista image I stored just to make sure I'm looking for the right stuff.

Thanks

araujo3000:

From a comand prompt, (start>run>cmd>ok), type driverquery, then right click, select all, right click again, and then paste the results into your message.

For example, here's the command run in XP SP2 on my gateway t1620 using the signed driver information switch. (I still have 3 unknown devices and no working sound card.)
