Hello, and Welcome!
Glad that LL is working out so well for you. To paraphrase what I said elsewhere on here earlier, M$ killed a lot of peripherals when they rewrote the Windows kernel for Vista.
The shortsightedness of this, killing XP, and forcing Windows 8 and 8.1 on people are some of the best things that could have ever possibly happened to Linux. Instead, the Linux folks have worked on the lack of legacy peripheral support, and wrote what was needed into THEIR kernels to support them.
