    Hi guys, I recently decided to DG from Vista to XP as there were some programs that still don't run well for me and stuff.

    I have installed all drivers except one, the display adapter one, which is REALLY bugging me because I cannot play my games w/o it. :(

    It's a HP Pavillion a6402.uk PC, the manufacturer (HP) only provides Vista drivers, I have tried like all drivers I can find on the site... none work, a recovery disk didn't come with my PC for some reason, and the recovery thingy at startup won't work,and I don't really want Vista back, I REALLY want to stick to XP, it will make my day if someone could help me fix this, thanks.

    If it helps I backed up drivers before the downgrade, the display adapter used to be "Intel(R) G33/G31 Express Chipset Family" when it was on vista, now it's nothing at the moment, as that was a vista driver...

    Thanks for the help guys, but YAY I MANAGED TO FIX IT WOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!! Thanks again guys! I downloaded the setup that it kept saying "my comp isn't compatible" or something, extracted it with winrar and then I searched for hardware uninstalled, found mine, chose location, then choose where I extracted the files from the setup, restarted then it worked!
