Can I install WinXP on my TP570 ? (Win2000 right now)

#1 Post by anteater70 » Mon Jul 04, 2005 11:12 am

I had no issues installing Win2k, but formatting the HD, and booting off the install CD. CanI do the same for WIn XP? Or are there issues?

IBM has device drivers for the 570 & XP (http://www-307.ibm.com/pc/support/site. ... SHY-46VTSZ). On the other hand, note this:

Thanks for the link !
Doesn't look like there is a conflict for "570" just "570E"
