Looks like Microsoft isn't advertising windows 7 features enough. Don't know about any specific drivers your laptop may need, but windows 7 would run just as fine as XP.

Heh, only old computers should really be running XP these days, and typically that will only be due to lack of driver support.

A gaming PC should definitely not be running XP, and some crazy fanboyism to the older OS is pointless.

How much? Also windows 7 uses ram alot differently then xp, so there would be a benefit.
