    I've reinstalled it fine. It's working. However I cannot find the right drivers for some of the stuff in this thing.

    I got the video card working and most things EXCEPT anything that can get me on the freakin' internet. I can't get the modem working or the wifi working. Exactly what drivers do I need in order for these to work? I tried everyone Gateway gave me but none of them are working.

    HELP! XP

    Maybe I missed one. Just help me with what drivers I need! I've got this Network adaptor that says it's "Marvell Yukon 88E8057 PCI-E Gigabit Ethernet Controller" but I can't get the darned thing to do much.
    I have no idea where the Wifi thing is in the Device Manager or what it's called.
    Same goes for the modem.

    HELP! I just want to get this thing ONLINE! lol

    Oh and explain everything as though I were an idiot. ;)
