(if your NIC is onboard) or from the NIC mftr.'s website. If there are no drivers for Vista and the XP ones won't work, if you have a desktop simply throw in a PCI NIC that you know is compatible with Vista. Basic NIC's are under $20. If you do this, disable the onboard adapter in the BIOS. Malke -- Elephant Boy Computers www.elephantboycomputers.com "Don't Panic!" MS-MVP Windows - Shell/User

Also, try going to Device Manager (Start "devmgmt.msc"), right-clicking
your NIC, and selecting "Update Driver..." Have Vista check the CD or any folder the driver installer created including subfolders; you can usually use an XP driver with Vista, but many installation programs refuse to install on a version of Windows they don't recognize. You can bypass that by letting Vista install the driver.
