Recieved mine also.

Once installed Vista Premium , the applications and drivers that come in the package.

What else is required to make to make this VGN-FE31M run as smooth as it did running XP MCE.

Do I need to add more drivers from this site.

Also when doing a clean install the hard drive is formatted as a single drive.

Any good advice for doing this Clean Install with the Discs that came from Moduslink ( Vista Premium , Drivers and Applications )would be much appreciated.

Cheers.

Does this help?

[a7med_360]

Ive read that multiple times havent found anything on it that will tell me if it will delete my partitions i have..........

[MattWilson]

When you install any operating system it should ask you in which partition you want it. It is likely to overwrite your XP partition since it is an upgrade but back everything up and then i won't matter.

The discs only perform a clean install!!!!
