More Information

Hi folks,

I've installed WinXP on my HP Pavilion dv6720ec. I've managed to find all the drivers except those for networking.
Does anyone have them pls? I know there has been some rumors on many sites but I can't get to them.
They say that I have to install chipset drivers (Ethernet, SATA, RAID and Modem) first or else I may experience weird WinXP behavior. I don't know how to get all the drivers back to the original state (when I first started WinXP).

I also tryed downloading NVidia chipset drivers for some dv6000 CTO.(they are the same) I ran setup.exe, some nVidia splash screen showed up and then there was a loading sequence, but when I should start clicking the "next" button the screen disappeared and acting like nothing happened. So much for my chipset drivers.

Then I tryed to do that manualy:(bad idea) From device manager I selected my device and done manual installation. In the end it showed some 'code 30' message. That made sense since it could not find those files placed in 'data.cab' and 'data2.cab'.
