Just got my 1730 and am wondering if it's advisable to install XP instead.

there is really no need; all new games work fine and most older games; some may need a patch or something (you should patch your games anyway!) but that is all. I would just keep vista unless you REALLY miss XP

I'd install XP before you get your stuff on your hard drive. Vista sucks with the M1730 trust me

Nothing wrong with Vista...pretty much all games will work with no problems...no need for XP at all.

some games can be a little squirely. what i do is put the game in, and open the contents. if you go to the setup.exe file, right click and click on compatiblity. then just select it to run for windows xp service pack 2 i believe is whats on there. i did that with rainbow six vegas, and oblivion. works fine.
