I need a ethernet controller driver? Any help?

So I orginally had an HP Windows Me desktop, and I did a fresh install with a Windows XP Professional CD. Now I have no internet. I know I need to update my ethernet controller driver, but I don’t know where to get it, or which one to get. Also, I need something that would save on a USB/flashdrive or a CD, because I can’t download it straight from my computer being that I have no internet. Any help? Best answer will be awarded!

Need a Printer USB splitter?

ok so i need a usb SPLiTTER! right now the printer is connected to my desktop but im getting an airport Extreme base, for my macbook. so what i need is a thing that plugs into the printers USB, that has 2 printer usb ports out (USB “B”) so i can have it connected to my dell and to the airport at the same time.

NOTE: NOT A HUB
PS: i dont want to hook the dell and the macbook up to the same wifi. im getting the airport extreme so i can have my own uninterupteted wifi signal for gaming and school work, the dell is a desktop, and the printer model is a hp photosmart 2610xi

Hey All, I’ve got a little trouble with my HP optical USB mouse?

Whenever i connect it into the port it, either works for about 30 seconds and stops or it a yellow message pops up saying ” unknown device”.
I’ve tried everything - drivers, help from hp.com, troubleshooting, but i guess yahoo answers are my last resort.
Please help me out..I know it’s not a problem with the USB port because the mouse lights up when i connect it..i’ve tried all 4 ports in the laptop

*the troubleshoot says ”no drivers installed”, but i can’t seem to find any drivers as such online or anywhere else..it’s a very small usb mouse*

Need to convert Firewire into USB?

I am trying to download video from my Canon miniDV camcorder onto my laptop. Manual calls for Firewrire cable, but my HP laptop can only accept USB 2.0. I did find a converter cable out there but it is pretty expensive ($119). What are the other options?

Printing from a mac to a printer connected to a Windows PC?

I want to print from my iBook to my HP F300 printer connected to my pc. When I add the printer from Windows networking, it asks for the printer model. It doesn’t have the model listed, so what should I choose?
I want to print wirelessly.

I have had drive F show up?

I have had Drive F usualy show up on my sidebar when I plug in my mp3 player. I can usualy pick a pre-downloaded a song form my PC files .
I usually right click and select send to and usually it says drive F and the device.

Now there is no such device listed. Yet when I plug the device in to the USB My side bar in Windows pops open and shows the device. It shows no Drive associated with the device.
I can open the device and everything.

If I want I can get windows Media Player to recognize and transfer to device no problems.
Also My printer is pluged in to the Dual 2.0 USB port as I do my mp3 device.
There has never been an issue before. But now when I turn the Printer on It shows up as hard disk storage on my side bar of windows as Drive F.

*** I drag my My Computer icon on the desktop to the far left of the screen to open this bar ***

When I check on the properties of drive F it is associated with My hp printer.
Never had Drive F associated with HP printer before.

Can I tell windows what drive I want my device to be associated with?
How can I get my right click in (my downloads) and send to….. back where I want it so I can download from my downloaded music directly to my mp3 ?
Thanks to all who can help!
