Nope, vista drivers won't work with xp.... BUT
Assuming that gateway use the lowest common denominator as hardware, then finding the drivers will be relatively easy.
So my question to you is - what are the makes and models of the various bits of hardware in the laptop?
Chipset
Video
Modem
NIC
Wireless
Bluetooth
Cardbus
Post the model of laptop and a link to the specs if you have one.

Wow! OK, so no more old jokes from me then!
If you get stuck with some odd bit of hardware, let me know.
