Re: [Thinkpad] ThinkPad X40 Questions

Hello,

You can disable quite a bit of Microsoft Windows Vista's user interface
elements and services to get a more Windows XP-like experience on the
computer.

Failing that, you may be able to find Windows XP-specific device drivers
for most of its components. The Samsung Q1 appears to have an Intel GMA 950
graphics chipset, which implies an Intel 940/945 chipset, both of which have
Windows XP drivers. Some things, like the touch screen and the built-in
keyboard may not work, though.

Regards,

Aryeh Goretsky
