what3v3r Posted September 12, 2004 Share Posted September 12, 2004 this is infact possible.youll need to extract the "drivers.cab" file of an xp (sp2) cd (its in the i386 folder) to a local folder. after that go to the device manager and find "other devices"->"unknown device". double click on it and choose to install a driver. now point the wizard to the folder you extracted the cab file to, and let it search.if this doesnt work youll need the corresponding .inf file for the infrared port, that tells windows which files to use.maybe someone here can help you with that. i also once found a step by step guide on how to do this, but unfortunatley i lost the url you could also try to insert a widows server 2003 standard edition cd and let the wizard search that disk for drivers, if you happen to have one that is.anyway, once you have the .inf file, and windows complains that it cant find a file youll still need to point it to the folder where you extracted "drivers.cab" to.i hope this hasnt been to confusing Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
