So I’m thinking about upgrading my NC10 (when I get it) to Pro myself. I was wondering about the card reader. The Samsung site didn’t have drivers for it. Does it just use the generic drivers on the XP Pro CD (I didn’t know XP had SDHC drivers!), or do I need to procure them from somewhere else?
Also, if you reload the “Recovery Solution III” software, can you run it again to create a partition to recover your XP Pro installation? I’m just wondering in case I don’t have a chance to make a bootable 2GB XP Pro slipstreamed installation stick or if I don’t have access to my external DVD drive.

The card reader drivers are included in one of the packages from the Samsung download site – it might be the chipset one although I’m not certain.
I did a clean install using a USB DVD drive but then installed Recovery Solution and made a back up of the clean install. You can’t write this to the hidden partition so I saved it to my second partition but because I left the hidden partition in place with the initial system back up, I now have two choices in the restore function to restore back to initial Samsung delivered state or my clean XP install.
