If it turns out that you can't find drivers for Windows 7, a reload of XP should be just as fine performance-wise.

Hi, I have a Toshiba Tecra thats been serving me well for almost 3 yrs now. It serves most of my personal computing needs, but has become awfully slow lately despite a 2GB RAM. Would it be a wise idea to reformat and load it with Windows 7? (I currently use XP + SP3) Will its performance get any better after a full disk clean up? I worry I'll lose all the Toshiba hardware drivers though. I really do not see the need for a new laptop, just a tune up should do just fine. Please help!
