aofarrell2 Posted February 27, 2014 Share Posted February 27, 2014 I'm trying to figure out what sound card and what wifi card I have. Windows device manager reveals basically nothing.

aofarrell2 Posted February 27, 2014 Author Share Posted February 27, 2014 Okay,I found a Intel 82567LM Driver for Windows 2000. But when I try to install, it says it can't find the device, or no such device present?Found the MEI driver for windows XP, but no Win2K driver. Tried to install it, errors out saying system doesn't meet minimum requirements.Intel WiFi Link 5100 "driver only" package for Windows XP installs without problems, but Win2K won't recognize the hardware still.Intel WiFi Link 5100 "management software and driver" package won't install, has "The MSI "" cannot be found. Setup will now terminate". error. Any ideas? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tripredacus Posted February 27, 2014 Share Posted February 27, 2014 Are you actually going to use the MEI's features? I don't and I never install its driver on my personal systems. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jaclaz Posted February 27, 2014 Share Posted February 27, 2014 Found the MEI driver for windows XP, but no Win2K driver.

Thanks!Once I installed that Windows recognized my modem and sound card! Now I just need to find their drivers. Guess I do need the MEI driver to use it all the way... Weird.I'll try that intel 5100 driver. Should work! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
aofarrell2 Posted February 27, 2014 Author Share Posted February 27, 2014 Well windows 2000 picked up my HD audio device, but refuses to install the driver. I looked in the setup configuration file, and there's about 20 different drivers needed to install it successfully, and the setup program always says the install failed, even though it picks up the device now... Weird... We will see if I can crack the EXE and get my other drivers Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Installed but won't pickup device...Still no luck getting my Conexant SmartAudioHD working. Can't even see it in the device list. Installer partially installs it, then exits with "FAILURE", and no logs that I can find. Any ideas? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

blackwingcat Posted February 28, 2014 Share Posted February 28, 2014 (edited) Hi.I tried to customize Intel Wifi 5x00 XP Driver.I resolved the lost exported functions but it did not work on Windows 2000.If you want to use Wifi on your PC, you must use another Wifi Chip. For example RTL8192E/SEYou work wonders blackwingcat!! It works!So now I have to ask, do you think you can get the intel 5100 drivers working?BTW I have a Lenovo Thinkpad x200s Edited February 28, 2014 by blackwingcat Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
submix8c Posted February 28, 2014 Share Posted February 28, 2014 (edited) re the Intel 5100 - your &DEV (4237) is NOT in the INF's. The Description (5100) is misleading. Apparently there a several of them - yours is an AGN and those are (at least it states this) ABGN/ABG/BG. Please note that one INF file has the VEN/DEV in the ControlFlags section in the ExcludeFromSelect list and that DEV, so you won't even have a chance to FORCE install anything, since NOTHING will be listed. In the other two, they will be listed, but it would be a matter of FORCE installing one that would work.It -appears- that the NETw4k32.INF is the "correct" one (assuming the NETw4x32.INF is the XP one).You -could- try forcing this Driver "Intel® Wireless WiFi Link 4965AGN" which should list (Dev=4229).Your -exact- one but for Windows7 (still searching...)http://www.driveridentifier.com/scan/download.php?item_id=90831801&scanid=E1405E5EDA7A4FF399A757457444F12A&hardware_id=PCI\VEN_8086%26DEV_4237%26SUBSYS_12118086?the Intel "name" for it is "Intel Shiloh (aka Shirley Peak?) PRO Wireless 5100 AGN"?Downloaded/Extracted (via UniExtract) the XP one (from my "maybe" link) and it has that -exact- one in it (a slightly older version than the Win7 one). Will check to see what the heck the difference is between this one and the other one. -NOTE- that the "maybe" one lists under folder XP but has a 2K INF file inside it. -POSSIBLY- you could try the "trick" jaclaz proposed? (INF CODE AT BOTTOM! ???How the HECK do you add text AFTER end-post Code/Quote boxes???)-EDIT- DOH! BWK (basically) already tried that. Still the OLDER one MIGHT work (comparing now) (contents inside XP INF)EDIT2 - more info on it - https://wikidevi.com/wiki/Intel_WiFi_Link_5100_%28abgn,_full_size%29Based on above, here's an XP one from HP -http://h10025.www1.hp.com/ewfrf/wc/softwareDownloadIndex?cc=us&lc=en&dlc=en&softwareitem=ob-63029-1Whether the same as the Lenovo, I don't know.edit3 - CRUD! v12.0.4.0 and higher -http://www.intel.com/support/wireless/wlan/sb/cs-008168.htm...which is BS since I got (from pcpitstop) "DriverVer = 04/27/2008,12.0.0.73" (XP and Vista "CD")... - wondering if this one would work?(following is from above mentioned INF); Lenovo_5100_AGN_1x2_MC%NIC_MPCIEX_5100AGN_1x2_MC_MOW2% = Install_MPCIEX_Lenovo_5100_AGN_1x2_MC_XP_MOW2 , PCI\VEN_8086&DEV_4237&SUBSYS_12118086 ; MOW2 Edited February 28, 2014 by submix8c Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
