First I should note I installed Windows XP on a Vista laptop. I installed the Nvidia nforce drivers (this is a nvidia nforce 430 laptop) with no problem, now I am trying to install the graphics drivers.

I downloaded the Nvidia Forceware drivers (which clearly state they work for all variations of the 6100 along with most every other nvidia card).

I attempted to install them and the installer says: "The nvidia setup program could not locate any drivers that are compatible with your current hardware. Setup will now exit."

To that, I have no idea what to do...

Also, if anyone knows what driver I would install for "Broadcom Wireless", the wireless which the laptop has.

I managed to find some of these drivers. Though after installing video drivers, when XP boots up the screen goes black after the XP loading bar thing.
