Today, I burrowed an external Hard drive to back all my documents, and other important stuff. I am ready to reformat and re-install Vista. My only problem now, is do I have to download drivers for my 6950G laptop, but I do not know which ones. Any tips would be greatly appreciated.

Thank you for your response. The biggest problem I have is re-installing. I hear you need a whole lot of drivers. And I do not know how.

Well you need to install mostly following drivers.. Bus Controller.. Video Driver. Audio Driver.. Ethernet Driver. Bluetooth/Wi-fi driver. Touch panel driver if your keyboard having touch keys.. These are the basic drivers first you need to have before formatting system.. I suggest download them first then reinstall..
