Don't you mean from Vista?

Some newer hardware on vista machines don't have XP drivers available HP+Packard Bells are known for this issue!!

you may be able to locate something at Gateways Website or Driverguide.com if you're lucky :)

Is this any help bud ? Gateway driver list

This will be a nice move on you. Many softwares nad programs don't run on vista yet right now. downgrading it may put you on track.
 
well thank you very much. unfortunatley i couldnt find a couple of the drivers for my computer. most of em arent needed really though. the one i need most is for my ethernet card. i can live without the rest that i havent found. anyone help me find that one :-o?
 
ok well ive gotten it working pretty well, still dont have the ethernet card working but not caring about that too much lol. i just noticed that i tried to put in a sd card and went to my computer and none of the things are even there. im assuming my built in media reader didnt get its drivers installed. anyone have any idea how i could find these drivers?
 
im not positive which one it is, but there are two things in my device manager that arent installed. i tried that on each of em but it didnt work for either of em.

the two things in my device manager that are not installed are:

Other PCI Bridge Device
SM Bus Controller

not sure how to get em up and working :-\

any more help would be appreciated :D
