I'm imagining upgrading to Vista will fix the problems I'm having right now since I'll be able to download the correct drivers.
Gizmodo has a great guide for Windows 7. Replace "Windows 7" with "Windows Vista" and follow the instructions except for the part where it wants you to compress the whole hard disk. You can skip that step.
