    I recently bought my F3K-A1 laptop after taking suggestions from this forum. It's a wonderful laptop but I wanted to install XP, 32 bit did not work with my 4 gigabytes of RAM so I went to 64bit, but a lot of my drivers are not showing or being recognized. A bit of help would be greatly appreciated.

    for ur 64 bit OS u will require special 64 bit drivers.....so make sure u install the correct drivers from the installation disk.....some manufacturers do not provide 64 bit drivers with the product....so u may have to rely on 3rd party drivers...try some driver sites like www.driverguide.com

    Try manufacturer drivers. If it has an Intel motherboard go to Intel's page and download the chipset drivers.
