As we approach the public release of Vista Beta 2, I have installed and ran the Upgrade Advisor on my target system. Among lack of HD space (30gb partition with 6gb free lol) it is telling me that my sound, video, and wireless all need upgrading.
Problem is this is for a HP laptop, and all the drivers are for WinXP. What can I do to get the drivers for my laptop up to Vista Specs?
---------- Laptop: HP Pavilion zv6000 Processor: AMD 64 3000+ (I think) Ram: 512mb Graphics: ATI Radeon Xpress 200M Sound: Unknown Wireless: Broadcom 802.11a NIC: Unknown

Driver Questions?
Try contacting HP and see if they have any specific Vista drivers out yet - I guess that's the best you can do :o(

Thanks Zack. I will give that a shot. I am trying to avoid using my main system to run the beta. Even there I have issues, because I have an old Audigy 2 card.
