Hi there bought a ACER ASPIRE M3641 a couple of months ago and would like to downgrade to XP from Vista Home Premium. Do you know if I will be able to and where I could get XP drivers from?

Thanks in advance.

    By the looks of Acer's website they only do drivers for Vista 32/64 bit. You would still have to purchase a Windows XP licence. How come you need to downgrade?

    Just don't like vista. Much prefer XP. I've got an original copy of XP which I was going to use. Ah well looks like I'm stuck with Vista.
    Thanks for your help tho.
