Thank You for your reply. I don' think I made myself very clear the BIOS update will be installed using the 'Dell Upgrade Assistant DVD' under XP then Vista will be installed is this OK. Regards, ltr880

Don't think of the BIOS upgrade as a "Vista BIOS", it's just a standard BIOS upgrade, you won't have any new issues going back to XP regardless of what BIOS you have.880

Sorry! Didn't think there would be another update so soon. It is 2.2.1.Just came out.When i installed Vista business it upgraded Bios to 2.1.2. This Vista is a lot of work but it,s pretty cool I guess. Nothing too spectacular.Or should I say not much WOW!Just a different look.
