Hey Anguish - Did you find the wireless card driver for XP? Its not on Dell's website for the Mini10v.  |

Never even looked for it. Windows 7 detects the card out of the box, so to speak. I didn't look for an XP driver. Triple Boot Guide - 10v RAM Upgrade Videos - mechdrew's OSX guides |

Correct. I used the 2 gig stick from my mini 9 with no problems. Its DDR2 PC4200. Ironically, my 10v came with DDR2 PC6400 which is overkill for this system. PC6400 runs at 667Mhz. If I am reading everything correctly, the Mini 10v supports up to 533Mhz, which is what PC4200 runs at. Yes, you can use PC5300 and PC6400 but I believe it clocks itself down to the slower speed, so I dont think you would see any real benefit to running it. Quote:

Thanks! I ended up finding the wireless driver on the driver CD dell sent with the system. Ironic that its on the CD and not on the website. Anguish - I would be really interested in hearing your thoughts about Win7 on the Mini 10v. I ran Win 7 on my Mini 9 and was very pleased with how it ran. Quote:

Should I risk going with a brand other than the dell? The same type of 2GB stick is $22 shipped on ebay. Dell wants $29 + shipping + tax, $40ish? ~MC |

I bought my ram from Fry's. No need to go with Dell if you can find it cheaper. If you get DDR2 PC4200 notebook ram, you will be fine. Quote:
