Missing XP Drivers - especially NETWORK CONTROLLER
Ok, I got XP SP2 loaded on my gateway (The model number is Gateway MX8711 1.6 GHZ intel pentium Dual Core laptop) but once again in search of the correct drivers for the follwing: Ethernet Controller, Mass Storage controller, Network controller, PCI Device, SM Bus Controller and the video controller. Can anyone help me out here ? If I can get the network working I can get online and use one of the driver tools to find the rest of the drivers. Currently they all that I previously mentioned come up as unknown devices. I'm sure this isn't uncommon when going from VISTA to XP PRO.

For newer hardware, try SIW (also free) --> http://www.gtopala.com/
Try this driver for your NIC:

It's an Intel 82562GZ NIC.

Have you found the VEN/DEV numbers for your NIC?

To Phototropic, yes I found the VEN/DEV number and it was an intel part 8086/1092. I tried the intel website but had little success. I'm still looking
