Hi,
You can have a look here http://www-307.ibm.com/pc/support/site.wss/homeLenovo.do?country=uk
and you will need to type in your model etc. You're looking for the 3000 N200 I believe. Shoul;d be straightforward from there.
Cheers
lol one second difference between my comment and punky's comment.
I should really refresh IE before posting my comments :o)

If none of the above is helpful, try this:

Start-Programs-Accessories-System Tools-System Information. Click on "components" and highlight "problem devices". Any hardware device with a driver problem will be listed here. Make a note of the PNP Device ID line of the entry. It will contain a Vendor number and a Device number (VEN. . . . DEV. . . .)
both four digits long.
Look up those numbers here:

http://www.pcidatabase.com/index.php

This will tell you the manufacturer and the chip number.  First port of call is the manufacturer's website.  If no joy there, try a driver database like Driverguide:

http://www.driverguide.com/


These hardware diagnostics are free:
Belarc:
http://www.belarc.com/free_download.html
Siw:
http://www.snapfiles.com/get/siw.html
If you have problems downloading, use the System Indformation proceedure in my post above to find out the manufacturer of the driverless chips...
Hi, are you having problems with this? If so, please post back your problems and we can help further. Cheers
C? A good point and some people gave a more complete solution too!
The asker has accepted my answer which is the link I posted but appeared that Jozef has provided a minute first. So the point should be rewarded to him with at least B grade.
:o)
PUNKY: one second so there should be points split.
That is ok Jozef.
