Hi

I have had to re-install XP and MsOffice on my laptop.
This is fine but now I cannot connect to the internet.
The problem seems to be that my laptop is asking for a
disk to install the driver for the ethernet connection.
I did not get a disk for this when I purchased it. I do
have a disk with drivers on but it is not on there.

Can I download this driver down from somewhere.
