I have Gateway MT3419 Notebook that came with Vista and I put XP on it because it didn't work with the MMO I'm playing. Anyways, everything works great except the LAN card and the Graphics card. I know it has a Geforce GO 6100, the problem is it doesn't know that... so when I tried to install drivers, it says there is no compatible hardware. Is it possible that the hardware in this laptop only works with Vista? I also tried forcing drivers, nothing works. Any help appreciated. Thanks! -Emily
Gateway uses OEM versions of drivers on their laptops, so you can't just go and download any old forceware and install it. I believe the model you have is a newer one that only came with Vista so they never made OEM drivers for XP.
