Hi

,
The issue here is somethings (Graphics etc. etc.), on a laptop is controlled on the
MOST part on the
Manufactures of the laptop (
Tweaking). On a laptop (and some PC's) the Manufacture will "
tweak" the drivers for thier
OWN personal use.
This results (in some cases) you will
LOSE some options if you
UPGRADE or
DOWNGRADE.
The
BEST thing I can tell you is to be patient!
The Manufactures were forced to go to Vista when they were not ready, but they are catching up.
