Hey guys.
i have a bit of a slow pc so i decided to install this version of xp sp3 lite 3.1

however i had a couple of problems.
the first was that it didnt install the graphics driver that i needed. i installed some 3rd party drivers to fix that problem.

it also wont let me choose the united kingdom version of my keyboard so i can use my (") and (@) key as layed out on my keyboard. (cant change the setting in control panel)

it hasnt also installed any drivers for my audio or lan but i'll start downloading the drivers for that manually.

it also displays this little message on the corner of my desktop:




is there anybody that can help me with the keyboard?
thanks,
Mubs

That XP is too lite; use nLite to make a 'lite' XP.SP3 DVD and you can select what YOU want to keep or discard. You can also choose to turn that desktop text on or off. Throw away the 'lite' disc you have; if it's creator deleted all the keyboard profiles to save .5mb, then I am sure everything else was also removed.

...As for drivers, you should ALWAYS try to use the latest drivers from the manufacturer website; the graphics drivers that windows includes are only useful to get you to the manufacturer website.
