Hi folks,

I have a dell latitude 1537 with vista installed but not really that happy with vista.

I was thinking of doing a rebuild with windows 7 and was looking on the dell site for drivers for all the hardware (network, wireless, bbluetooth etc) but I can not see the drivers for thsi laptop for anything other than Vista :mad:

Can anyone tell me if they think that I could get everything to work with windows 7 ?

Appreciate and answers that may come...

Most Vista drivers should be ok with Windows 7. Windows Update might even have some of the drivers you need and failing that, try the website for the device manufacturers (Intel, Broadcom, ATI etc).
