Laptop Question
My brother recently got a laptop with Windows XP installed and doesn't like WIndows XP. He has asked me to format it and put Windows 2000 on it. I assume the install on a laptop wont be much different from a desktop install but I was wondering if I need any kind of special drivers for the built in mouse. Are there any other problems or concerns I should look into before doing this?
THanks, Shaticus |

Yes you are correct in that there are usually drivers you will be needing from the manufacturer's website or a disk that may have came with the laptop. Laptops do usually have some specific hardware that windows will likely not have native drivers for. I would check before I wiped out the harddrive to be sure the needed drivers are available..
