Hi Anonymous-69001,

My name is Chinmay and I work for the Social Media and Community Team at Dell.

You can find the drivers for the Windows XP for your Vostro system from the website : support.dell.com

You can also refer to the same drivers link as below :

http://www.dell.com/support/drivers/us/en/19/DriversHome/NeedProductSelection?fkey=Drivers_PS

Just enter the service tag and you will get a list of all the drivers for your computer.

In order to install windows XP , you should have a Operating system disc for it. I will request you to add me as a friend and private message the service tag of your computer. So that I can assist you in a better way.

Glad to assist you.

Thank you.
