Can anyone help. i have an old medion pc and recently re-installed windows xp on it however there are several icons in device manager with a ? next to them and it says there is no driver installed. I dont have the driver cd and am unsure where to find the correct drivers. the ethernet controller and sound card are just a couple of the ones that say they dont have drivers installed. Any help would be much appreciated.

1) Pull the ethernet card out and see if you can determine make and model.

2)If #1 is not successful, look at the largest IC on the card and try downloading the reference drivers for that chip.

You gave no specific useful information so I can only give you generic answers.
