I have Gateway MX8741 Laptop that originally came with Vista. I reformatted and installed windows xp on it. Now, i can't find any ethernet drivers for windows xp for this machine. Gateway said i would have to pay to speak to "Answers by Gateway" to get a third party solution, which is BS. I tried to install the vista network drivers but they did not work.
Wifi and sound drivers work. Also, can't seem to find video drivers for this machine either.
if anyone knows anything that could help me, i'd really appreciate it.
Here's the direct link to ALL drivers needed to load xp pro for ALL the devices. Make sure to integrate you're sata drivers into the xp disk before starting, I used Nlite to do this, to allow windows to access the hardrive after first reboot. Good Luck. It can be done, I'm using it to write this.
