Here is the Vista Device Manager for proof. ![]() I did that, got the driver installed, but with an Error 39 in Device Manager. Anyways, I decided to see if I could get USB 3.0 drivers working by editing the INF files. On the first take with this, I had working Ethernet, but now I can't seem to remember how I got it working. If I needed files on this laptop, I either would have to use another laptop with a CD drive and copy them that way, or restart into the 7 installation. ![]() The one big problem I noticed besides the other missing drivers was the lack of any USB support. It worked and the built-in keyboard and mouse of course worked. To achieve this, I had to install it through the CD drive. I then decided to split equal space from the 7 partition and plop Vista on the newly created partition. ![]() A few months afterwards, I decided to install Windows 7 on it and got it working. This remained until 2019 when I got a shiny, new laptop. This was acquired at the end of 2015 brand new, and had Windows 10 on it. Before I dive in, I want to give a backstory, which will hopefully answer some questions you may have and also reveal my computer specs, etc. Anywho, I have partially managed to get Intel eXtensible USB 3.0 drivers working in Windows Vista. The following is the product of a guy who has a lot of free time.
