My hard drive failed recently - all data lost 
Once I installed the new hard drive and the Windows 7 64 bit operating system, I was hoping to go online and download the drivers for my mobo and everything else I needed. However, I couldn't get online as the network card, which is integrated with th mobo, wasn't being recognised. So at work, I went to the ASUS website and hoped to download the mobo driver from there, but there was a whole reem of different drivers (Audio, BIOS, Chipset, Infineon TMP, LAN, SATA, USB, Utilities and VGA) to download.
I thought if I download the Realtek LAN driver first on to a USB, then go home and install it, I could then get online and download everything else. However, at home the LAN driver installation failed - the error message was "file not found" and something to the effect that the hardware was in sleep mode.
I contacted Computer Planet, who built the PC to order for me, to see if they could send a copy of the Recovery CD I got from them when I bought the computer (I lost the one which came with it) but they said that this was "not possible".
I though rather than trying to download all the files listed on the ASUS website (Audio, BIOS, Chipset, Infineon TMP, LAN, SATA, USB, Utilities and VGA) and getting the same problem (file not found or sleep mode), I could perhaps get a copy of the ASUS installation CD for my mobo instead and do a all-in-one cleas install from there.
Does anyone know where I can get one? Or does anyone know which one of the following drivers (Audio, BIOS, Chipset, Infineon TMP, LAN, SATA, USB, Utilities and VGA) I should install first to get the LA out of sleep mode?
Thanks
