Default XP drivers to Amilo Xi 2428

Hey!

I bought an Amilo Xi 2428 a couple of weeks ago and the first thing I did was to put Win Xp on it because I don't like Vista. I have a slight problem finding drivers for XP to all hardware in it and can't get much help from Fujitsu since they don't support anything else than Vista. I have found most of them but what I can't seem to find after extensive searching is the ones for the Remote (ITE CIR) that comes with and the Memory card reader. Anyone know any place I can find the drivers or have any tip? Thank you for all help.

Ironic enough I think I found the last two .

EDIT: I spoke too soon. The Remote driver that seemed to be working at first was no match. So still looking for the driver for the remote (ACPI\ITE8709\5&CB7B051&0).

Hello there
Yes, same problem, drivers and install XP. The link from exoristos gave a blank.
Yes, another link is found. Read the page, and click where it says "her", and you will find drivers to XP for 2428, at least that what they say. I have not tried it yet, but thought of sharing it as it has caused me alot of time and trouble.
Regards
Mike

This is what is provided by Fujitsu-Siemens themselves:

MS Windows® XP driver for AMILO Xi2428
Item number: 233162668 Date: 19.05.2008

Description:
Are there MS Windows XP driver available for the AMILO Xi2428?

Solution:
The AMILO Xi2428 is only released by Fujitsu Siemens Computers for MS Windows Vista®. Therefore we do not provide MS Windows XP driver. However, you can test the following driver on your own risk:

Audio (onboard): Realtek ALC883 Audio Codec
http://support.fujitsu-siemens.de/Do...B-EB089255ADA0
or
http://www.realtek.com.tw/downloads/...&GetDown=false

Chipset: Intel® Mobile 965GM/PM (Crestline)
http://support.fujitsu-siemens.de/Do...F-D24AADEFB2D4

LAN: Realtek - RTL8111B
http://www.realtek.com.tw/downloads/...&GetDown=false

Modem: Castlenet (Motorola) - ML3054
http://support.fujitsu-siemens.de/Do...8-131F6D7B742D

Wireless: - Intel® PRO/Wireless LAN 3945ABG
http://downloadcenter.intel.com/T8Cl...ional&lang=deu

Wireless: - Intel® Wireless WiFi Link 4965AGN
http://downloadcenter.intel.com/T8Cl...ional&lang=deu

Intel® Matrix-Storage-Manager
http://downloadcenter.intel.com/T8Cl...ame=Windows*XP Professional&lang=deu

NAND Flash: Robson Module
- no Win XP driver available

Chicony - CNF6133 (1.3M build in camera)
- no Win XP driver available
probably the following driver works:
http://download1.msi.com.tw/files/do...P_Vista_NB.zip

CIR: for Media Center Remote control
- no Win XP driver available

Bluetooth via Billionton CSR BC04 - GUBTCR42M
- no Win XP driver available
- try to use the MS Windows Vista driver from Driver- & Utility DVD
- due to licence agreements no further downloads can be offered by Fujitsu Siemens Computers

VGA NVidia GeForce8400M (NB8M-SE) / 8600M GS

Please note:
Since MS Windows XP is not tested with the AMILO Xi2428, Fujitsu Siemens Computers can neither provide support nor warranty for the functionality of those driver.

What I can personally say is that in my Amilo Xi 2428 with Windows XP Pro SP2 installed, the only things not working are the Turbo Memory (needs Vista) and the Remote (needs Media Center). Both the Webcam and the Bluetooth work perfectly.
