    Hello,
    I am thinking of installing XP on my Linux AA1. I went on to the Acer download site to get the drivers and
    noticed that there is a BIOS for Win XP. Do I need to install this before installing XP?

    Thanks.

    BIOS is OS independent. So, your choice on whether you want to update your AA1's BIOS before or after your XP installation.
