The answer is probably out there but after searching I did not find it.
Where do I get device drivers for XP?
I am installing XP on a HP laptop that was just bought and had vista on it. I formatted the hard drive using the vista recovery disc at http://tinyurl.com/yta9oa.
Heres the problem. At start up when I boot from disc with XP I get a Stop 0x0000007B error message which I believe to be because of the device drivers from Vista not being compatible with XP.
So where do I get all the drivers for XP and how do I install them before I install XP?

Let me know if you need more info and thanks for the help.

-Allan

go to the HP site and look up your computer and get the drivers from there.
