I recently did a clean install of Windows XP Professional on a computer I won in a raffle. Afterwards I've had difficulty getting an internet connection. I looked in the Device Manager and noticed three yellow question/exclamation marks next to "Ethernet Controller", "Multimedia Audio Controller", and "Video Controller (VGA Compatible)". Here's a picture. http://img80.imageshack.us/img80/99... I believe it's just a matter of downloading the right drivers onto a floppy disk using my computer that DOES have internet, and then replacing the drivers on the new computer, but I don't know where to look. These are my questions: Where can I download the appropriate drivers for an IBM Thinkcentre A50 8148-22U? What are the steps I must take to replace the drivers once I have them on my floppy? I'll be checking this thread often and responding to all replies. Thanks!

Bonus points for using a camera to take a screen shot. IBM drivers here.

Have you checked here? http://www.google.com/search?hl=en&... You can use SIW: http://www.gtopala.com/siw-download... or everest home: http://majorgeeks.com/download4181.... to help you name and find the drivers Some HELP in posting on Cnet plus free progs and instructions Glad to Help!

You may need to install MBoard chipset drivers in addition to the above mentioned.

Now I have my drivers but still no internet! Time to make a new thread with new pictures. Here are my individual responses: Razor: I was able to use the website you linked me to to get the drivers I needed for audio, video, and an ethernet controller. I no longer have any Yellow exclamation/question marks in my device manager, thank you! XpUserForReal: I've bookmarked those last two tools, but thanks to razor's post I didn't need to use them. OtheHill: I didn't install any MBoard chipset drivers, but I looked mine up and it's an Intel Springdale-G i865G.
