Any suggestions how to install network driver into my dell Inspiron 9400 laptop xp with no internet connection, I tried downloading on another computer and installing with a memory stick but won't work
 
Solution
Simply plug your laptop to the router using LAN cable and Your laptop will install wireless driver itself.
You can always search for rthe driver onto manufactures website(support) downlaod it and copy it to USP drive and install onto laptop.

That simply means you need to install it's driver, we already know that.

What I want to know is what happens when you try to install the driver from a pen drive.
