FZ18 - Questions.

[jesnche]

Hi!

I have bought a FZ18 recently. I have a few questions and I hope somebody can help me.

First of all, I want to remove Vista of my vaio to install Windows XP but I'm not able to find XP drivers. I called to Vaio Support and they told me that only exists Vista drivers to my Vaio model. It's posible to remove Vista ?

Otherwise I have burned the three restore DVD's using Vaio Restore Utiliy. If I drop the original partitons, This DVD's can restore them?

And the last question, How long will the battery last?

Sorry for my poor english. Thanks a lot to read this post.


Bye!

Yes, my Vaio model is VGN-FZ18M. In America, Does Sony use a different number for this model?

In america they use 130, 140, 145, 150, 160, 180 and 190.

I don't believe so but there is some similarities in the way they name there models.

E - Entry level model

M - Mid-range model

S - High spec model

Z - Full spec model

Yours being an M will match all of those that are FZ**M.
