| | prc1 on laptop, upgrade fresh xp or clean install? Hi guys, When I installed Vista Beta2 on my compaq 2105us laptop, I did it as a fresh install (immediately after low level format). It had several driver/networking issues that ultimately caused me to uninstall it. With prc1, I was thinking of low level format, install xp, INSTALL MFR DRIVER DISK, then upgrade to vista prc1. Would this be a good idea, or a waste of time? Yes, I tried updating/manually installing all drivers from mfr disc with the beta2, but the disc wouldn't let me... Or are so many of the issues of 5384 solved that I should just do the clean install after the LLF? Thanks G |
