Ok. so I'm trying to install this Intel 802.11bg driver on my Tosh lappy. (I am installing it from a USB Flash drive, since the machine has no network connections.)

I install in XP2 compatability mode, and the report is that the installation is correct. But on restart, "Windows could not find a driver for your network adapter".

Is there a workaround?

Look in Device Manager and see if there are any yellow flags next to any entries.

Yes - that's the issue ~ Network controller is flagged and what I am trying to fix.


BTDT. Awesome, and got the video working. Lexxion's masterful tutorial only deals with the system vga files however, so not sure how to translate that to network controller.
