For those having driver problems (can't find XP drivers), don't forget to
check out the Windows 2000 drivers for your cards, etc. In most cases but
not all, XP can use the Windows 2000 drivers in place of XP drivers. I have
successfully used them in business production units with no adverse
affects. A warning tho, that this may not resolve the problem for everyone
since each configuration is unique. Nice part about it is that with XP
Professional, I'm not sure about the Home version, you can roll back to a
the previous driver if the new driver doesn't work.
