First of all thank you to everyone here esp the mods. Everyone here gets rewarded for helping everyone else one way or another, thanks for the support.

I have read the Vista to XP downgrade and noticed that it was mostly a driver thread. I plan to reinstall fresh XP to my laptop. (because I bought it used) Good thing is that XP setup detects my harddrive and its partitions.

I have read somewhere (if not here) that I might be able to scoop the drivers from the compaq partition or elsewhere before I delete everything. I want to make sure I have everything I need after the install before I delete everything :) Im a "make sure/be on the safe side" person.

Here is a link to the drivers I might need after the install. Do you guys think I might need some other drivers that are not listed?
