Ok in relation to my other thread I now have windows xp on my laptop, but I also have several yellow question marks next to some hardware and one of them I think is my wireless adapter? How the devil do I get xp to install these please? List :-

2x Ethernet controller , 2 yellow question marks
1x pci device (adapter ?) yellow question mark
1x SM bus controller yellow question mark
1x unknown device ( adapter ?) yellow question mark
1x video controller yellow question mark
1x video controller (VGA compatible) yellow question mark

Anyone who is willing to talk me through these send me your number and I will ring if possible? Thanks

The above devices are requiring drivers. When you got the l/top did you get any installation discs?

If not you will need to go to the support page of the manufacturer of your laptop, usually you are able to enter the model number of the l/top and a list of available drivers will be listed. These are usually self extracting files so it is just a question of d/loading the file and it will self install.
