Having trouble finding driver

[insanepuppet]

Hi guys,

I'm having trouble finding the lan or wlan drivers for an ibm thinkpad t42 2374. I've been to Lenovo's site, but the driver doesnt seem to work even when reading the readme and installing manually. Can someone help plz

what model number is it?

depending which model you have it only came with a B-wireless network card which might only support WEP wireless


seen if this one works for the LAN

according to this site your system has a AR5001X+ (AR5212) wireless card and a Intel Pro/1000 (e1000) LAN

I think the drivers I linked to should work

here is a link for the wireless card

Before they close the thread, think you can link me to the Vid driver? Driver Genius and Driver Magician fail to find the right one. My god this is a driver nightmare

Wow and the audio. What is up with this? The transfer to Lenovo? none of the driver linked work

the video drivers need to come from Lenovo since they are specific to the laptop
