I think most of the drivers such as Audio, Modem, blutooth and such should be compatible, for nforce drivers and also nvidia drivers, you can get it from Nvidia’s official website, if you’re unsure about the drivers that you’ve downloaded from Compaq’s website can work or not.
Lol, it takes me one whole day on how to solves this problem ><, apparently, if someone tries to installs Windows Vista *cough* version, and activates it using paradox activator, it might caused BSOD error on royal.sys. So, the only way on how to solves this problem is, either you buy original Windows Vista, or use Windows XP. About Royal.sys bsod error in Windows Vista, read it here:- - Click here for more info.

As I mentioned before, you can get the drivers from compaq’s website, or download them by yourself at Nvidia’s official website. There’re few tools you’ll need to download before you continue:-
- Winrar, for extracting the setup files.
- CPU-Z, for identifying the motherboard chipset.

Ok, now we need to know whats your chipset and also whats your graphics chipset. All Compaq V3616AU should have the same chipsets among each others, and also the same graphics chipset. But still, you’ll need check on it before you continue =3.
