I was at my wits end trying to install my retail XP on a new Fujitsu A6120 with no downgrade rights, no floppy drive, and an AHcI eSATA drive. Your mention of n-Lite jogged my memory so I created an XP Install disk (unattended as well) with the GM965 Intel chipset and SaTA driver AND SP3! all in one package. Then I sat back back with a beer and watched years of Microsoft work on Vista magically disappear. Woohoo! Scott Thanks a mil. I was at my wits end trying to

I recommend testdisk (undeletes partitions) and photorec (retrieves data from formatted partition). Though it works in commandline it's no so hard, wizard-like. use ur brainz and google…

(firefox must be making vista jealous). and to top it all off, it uses more processer cycles than it needs to, so playing (new) video games is out. Also, up yours microsoft. microsoft virtual PC 2007 doesn't work with my version of vista, so i have to buy MORE useless software just to get my old useless software to work! thanks, but no thanks. windows vista is incompatible with most software that came before it (including antivirus software). it crashes randomly, like when i’m opening an internet broser.
