Packard Bell M37-T-003 Drivers for XP
I have a laptop with Vista but would like to install Windows XP.
The drivers on the manufacturers FTP website (6 drivers) are provided for Vista only.
ftp://ftp.download.packardbell.com/NOTEBOOK/EasyNote%20MX37%20series/Driver/Vista/
Can anyone locate the 6 drivers that would be compatible for Windows XP.

Please go to www.drivereasy.com it is free and will get your driver you need.
Open the Device Manager, click Start then Run and enter devmgmt.msc
Right click on the devices you need drivers for and select properties.
Then select the "Details" tab
Use Ctrl+c to copy the device instance ID string.
Then paste it (Ctrl+v) in your reply.
I will try to find your drivers for you.

I think this might be the one for the wireless.

when you run drivereasy, it will show after the scan what drivers must be updated; click on "Get drivers" and note them.
you can now either let drivereasy update them (free= slow), or google them yourself !

Or try this to identify the devices : --> especially your Lan (needed for Drivereasy)
Start>Programs>Accessories >System Tools>System Information.
Now select "Components" and highlight "Problem Devices".
All hardware devices with a driver problem will be listed here.
Make a note of the first line of the PNP Device ID line of the entry. It will show a Vendor number and a Device number (VENxxxxDEVxxxx) 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.
Check the manufacturer's website first or google them - or post them here

but it hangs on 91%. This was the one you posted earlier. any suggestions why?
Also, does it matter that some of these drivers are for other manufacturers? will this not cause "crashes"

Does it hang while downloading or installing?

Install the wireless manually and direct the installer to:

it hangs on installing.
By manually - do you mean right clicking on device and updating that way

PCI Device
PCI\VEN_1039&DEV_7502&SUBS YS_C10B163 1&REV_00\3 &267A616A& 0&78
Use the Fixit here.

the fixit did not work - can you locate the actual driver
many thanks

Thanks for replying

I did try the link, but could not locate the driver

I have tried this link already, these were the originial drivers that didn't work, the installer does not recognise the operating system.

What is your Windows XP service pack? SP1, Sp2 or SP3?
ASKER
SP3
Could you check the Device Manager again and get the Device Instance ID's for any flagged devices?
and drivereasy? di d you try that?
ASKER
The laptop picks up the device but is unable to install driver.
I attach some screen dumps.

I just want to make sure we are still looking for the right drivers. Please check the Device Manager again and get the Device Instance ID's for that device.

why should this change, the manufcaturer (vendxxxx) should be the same

Because the Fixit installed the needed drivers for the High Definition Audio Bus and now it is picking up the sound adapter on that bus.
See if this one will work.
