Ok, so someone gave me a netbook HP DV2000 with a bad screen, but after connecting to an external monitor is a very decent system and it works well with 7. But I wanted to install dual boot XP/7, XP mainly for old games. The problem is that I can´t find any sound and wifi working drivers for XP. All drivers were downloaded from here, as a good ftp source for legacy HP drivers, but not all worked for me.
Some drivers worked under XP, like those for minor functions like keypad and special keys. Got graphics from Intel drivers downloads, no problems on that side. But for the life of me was impossible to make work wifi and sound. Wifi only works with limited connection, even with manually assigned IP and DNS values, so I think problem is the driver. Upon startup is trying to install Audio Device on High Definition Audio Bus, sure something to do with sound, but can´t find any driver like that.
According to HP official site, this netbook was shiped with Vista 32 and 64 bits so one of my questions is: should be better to install only Vista on this netbook, or keep trying to install XP?
Thanks in advance
