Imagine in your head a picture of loading an elephant in a Mini Morris? Impossible right? Well not quite. Fujitsu Siemens delivers the Amilo Li 1718 with Windwos Vista Home, so loading the elephant should be a lot easier than working on a budget notebook with Windows Vista installed. The Amilo Li 1718 is a nice budget machine, with dual core processor and a low-end graphic card mostly intended for simple writing tasks and surfing the web. The fact that I’m writing about it is because Fujitsu Siemens doesn’t offer support for Windows XP, which means they do not provide Windows XP Drivers for it, nor on their website, nor a cd with the notebook itself.
But again, do not worry, I am here to help. I found all of the drivers for windows xp and they work perfectly well. Simply run your winXP install, download the drivers I listed below and install them one by one. Thats it, now you will have a nice budget pc machine with an Operating System that is actually worth working on and is fast like it should.
Fujitsu Siemens Amilo Li 1718 Audio Driver XP
Fujitsu Siemens Amilo Li 1718 Chipset Driver XP
Fujitsu Siemens Amilo Li 1718 Display Driver XP
Fujitsu Siemens Amilo Li 1718 Modem Driver XP
Fujitsu Siemens Amilo Li 1718 Wireless Driver XP
The installation is pretty straight forward on most of them except on the display driver where you should choose AGP during install, and the wireless driver doesn’t have runable exe file, and you should go through Device Manager, Update Driver and just point to the folders with the driver files.
Hej

Hi, thanks for these drivers, they all worked except from one which was the wireless driver, i had to add my wireless card with the add hardware function and when i try to update the driver all goes well except from at the end it says that the driver is either corrupt or missing. if i am doing anything wrong please give me steps as i am not familiar with xp and would appreciate it greatly if you could help. thanks
Hi…..I’m trying to help out someone who doesn’t have cash to reload a “Fujitsu Siemens Amilo LI 1718″ with XP. Everything seems to be working, but there’s no sound. I get pop-ups to load “SM BUS CONTROLLER” & “MODEM DEVICE ON HD AUDIO BUS”. The audio driver I downloaded from your site will not install until the “SM BUS CONTROLLER” is installed. The light on my flash drive also does not light up as it does on other machines when inserted, but data can be transferred either way without any problems.
The drivers I’ve downloaded from you site are:
Fujitsu Siemens Amilo Li 1718 Audio Driver XP,
Fujitsu Siemens Amilo Li 1718 Chipset Driver XP,
Fujitsu Siemens Amilo Li 1718 Dislay Driver XP,
Fujitsu Siemens Amilo Li 1718 Modem Driver XP &
Fujitsu Siemens Amilo Li 1718 Wireless Driver XP.
If you could assist with overcoming the pop-ups mentioned earlier it would be greatly appreciated.
Many thanks

you are my modern heroe baby! Where ancient knights fought for the poor and beaten down with there swords and the leaders of civil rights movemnets fought with there words you blessed us poor victims of cruel companys with your time saving warmth by suplying us with that life belt of drivers. Thank you so much!!! My little Amilo runs fast as a puma on speed. And the wirelessproblem is solved too.
The Vista Fsc Launch Manager runs under XP aswell.
And don´t forget to swich on your Wireless in bios Advance.
wondering how fujitsu computers are doing now?
Thanks mate!
Thanks for all
I would jus like to know if its possible to connect my laptop to two screens without having to add any additional drivers or forms of adapters. Ur respone will be highly appreciated.
No, I don’t believe that is possible Ahmed. As I can recall the Fujitsu Siemens Amilo Li 1718 has only one VGA output, so you can connect only one additional monitor.
for wireless to work for 1718 you need to install atheros AR5001A http://www.atheros.cz/atheros-wireless-drivers.php
than setup.exe adn it works 100%.
