When xp finally gets installed and i log in, the new hardware is found and it asks me to insert a floppy disk or browse for the proper driver. I can browse to the Drivers folder that gets created in the root of c: and the nic gets installed without any issue. i have found a digitally signed version of the driver, so it doesn't even prompt me with driver signing questions anymore. But why the heck doesn't it automatically install this device. it's like it just doesn't know where to find the files, even though the folder gets copied over with all the files. Does anyone have a clue on how to fix this or at least run a post job where i can tell the os where to look for the files?? Please help????? thanks
