Okay, so I had to reformat my PC last night and use a version of windows that my lap top came with. I lost the original factory CD due to some very unfortunate circumstances. But now, I dont have internet or sound. My VGA card is fine as I recently bought one and have the CD for the drivers. But my sound and ethernet controller is directly on the motherboard.

Please tell me im not screwed. This is a spare computer by the way, the one im posting on

If I got the drivers from the site and moved them to a flash drive, would that work at all? Or is there no way to carry the drivers from one PC to another?
