Is there an easy way of finding all required drivers to format and reinstall? <BR /><BR />My second question is.... do sony offer a service to downgrade the machine? <BR /><BR />Thanks in advance<BR /></P></BODY></HTML> Tue, 15 Apr 2008 08:42:21 GMT https://community.sony.ba/t5/pcs-accessories/downgrading-ar31s-to-xp-advice-please/m-p/17683#M61990 will76 2008-04-15T08:42:21Z Re: downgrading ar31s to XP, advice please https://community.sony.ba/t5/pcs-accessories/downgrading-ar31s-to-xp-advice-please/m-p/17686#M61991 <HTML><HEAD></HEAD><BODY><P>Hi will76,<BR /><BR />welcome to Club Vaio.. <img class="lia-deferred-image lia-image-emoji" src="https://community.sony.ba/html/@3191CA7235A406D833094BA2DD1CF2FF/images/smilies/011.png" alt=":slight_smile:" title=":slight_smile:" /> <BR /><BR />The thread by costasp may help, use the following link to view:<A href="http://club.vaio.sony.pt/clubvaio/PT/pt/forum/viewthread;jsessionid=6C89803CC9808CB81F1460AE150239D0.beru-lars?thread=41647&amp;offset=0" target="_blank">Full instructions to downgrade an AR31M from Vista to XP Pro</A> <BR /><BR />Note that you will loose the pre-installed application such as Win DVD BD if you downgrade to XP..<BR /></P></BODY></HTML> Tue, 15 Apr 2008 14:17:50 GMT https://community.sony.ba/t5/pcs-accessories/downgrading-ar31s-to-xp-advice-please/m-p/17686#M61991 Thalamus. 2008-04-15T14:17:50Z
