FreeBSD identifies the ethernet as 'em0', which is an Intel NIC, and the wireless as a 3945abg, which is also Intel, and the sound chip as snd_hda, which is probably Intel also. I don't have any issues with the video, which is detected by XP - it's identified as Intel GM965.
I can cruise the Intel site, but you'd think that if the vendor of the laptop is mentioning these drivers, I could get them from the web site. But no, they all say no download available. Sheesh.
