This is strange, The codes match perfectly.
The drivers I linked to you should install without issues.

How are you installing the drivers?
Have you tried a manual install?

Download and Extract the driver to a folder
Note where you have extracted the driver.

Go to the Device Manager
Right click on the error>Update
Select: No, not this time
Select: Install from a list or specific location (Advanced)
Select: Include this location in the search
Select Browse and browse to the folder you extracted the driver to.
XP should install the driver.

Hello Bill,

Thanks for your consign, I hope everything is well with you. This driver thing is driving me crazy, I did what you told me to do last and it says the same this; The following file is already on your computer and it ask if i should overwrite the file..that means the driver is on my system but not working.

Can I ask a question? I have tried to open some website and they wouldn't open on my laptop? Could it be cos of the vedio controller, cos am having problem opening any anti virus websites like CA, MACAFEE even mircosoft.

Would your advice be for me to reformat the laptop again?

Thanks so much Bill.

Riskyone101 · 10-09-2009, 09:05 PM

Hello, yes I would recommend a reinstall of the operating system again.

Make sure to use a clean computer to do this below here.

This time use a harddrive utility found here:
http://www.tacktech.com/display.cfm?ttid=287

Download the ISO cd image for your harddrive and burn it to a cd as an image file
You can use this program here for burning it as an image file:
http://www.imgburn.com/

Now if you dont find one for your harddrive then use one of these here:

Killdisk - http://www.killdisk.com/
Dban - http://www.dban.org/download

Note: Use BCCOMP driver list there and burn them to a cd.

Post back and let us know how it goes, ty.

**BCCOMP** · 10-10-2009, 08:58 AM

The drivers should be installing with the manual install.
Are you extracting the driver to a folder or running the setup exe?
Is your version of XP a legit version or one that was downloaded?

Each driver link I gave you comes with installation instructions (Scroll down the page).

If you are trying to connect to the internet wirelessly, then you will not beable to until the driver is installed.
Are the above three errors the only errors you have in the Device Manager?

Bill

usen100 · 10-10-2009, 02:13 PM

Thanks again Bill, The drivers are install the way i installed others i found. I actually have another laptop called IBM X40 and IBM T42P I had to copy all the drivers from the X40 and tried them on the T42P, other drivers worked well except those and they are the only 3errors i have on my system. The XP i am usng is a legit XP and not downloaded. I will try to go back and read the installation instruction from the driver. And if it doesn't work I will write again am so greatful.

Thanks so much.

**BCCOMP** · 10-10-2009, 05:53 PM

Hi,
If you downloaded the drivers to your desktop and click on the exe file, these drivers will extract themselves to C:\Driver folder.
Open My Computer>Left click on the C: drive
Show hidden files
Look for a folder named Drivers
The drivers you downloaded should be in this folder.

From there you may have to run the setup exe file or install the driver through the device manager

usen100 · 10-11-2009, 01:13 PM

Thanks BCCOMP,

Am happy you explained what I was supposed to do. I can see i was the one making the mistake, I did what you said and i can see the drivers were hidden so I looked for the driver from the C: drive and it worked fine. Thanks so much am so happy atleast am getting there its just the error for the network controller thats not working. I also did the same thing for the driver for network controller, some of the setup entered and when i try to install somethings it says something like cisco Aironet client adapters.

Am so greatful Again Thanks so much.

**BCCOMP** · 10-11-2009, 01:22 PM

Can I get the exact error message?

Bill

usen100 · 10-11-2009, 03:56 PM

The error message No Cisco Wireless LAN Client Adapters Installed.

Quote:

PC1\VEN_1489&DEV_A504&SUBSYS_50001489&REV_00\4&39A85302&0&10F0 Network controller

Check the number (from your first post) above.
Should it be PCI\VEN_14B9&DEV_A504&SUBSYS_50001489&REV_00\4&39A85302&0&10F0?

If it is this should be the driver:
http://www-307.ibm.com/pc/support/si...cid=MIGR-42683

Download the above driver to your desktop
Make a New Folder in My Documents (Name it Network)
Go back to the desktop and RIGHT click the file 1kwc42ww (file you downloaded).
Extract the driver to the Network folder (you made) in My Documents
Open the Device Manager
Right click on the Network Controller error
Select: Update driver
Select: No, not this time and click Next
Select: Install from a list or specific location (Advanced) and click Next
Select: Include this location in the search only
Select: BROWSE Browse to the folder you made in My Documents (Network) to the SUB Folder PPC-MPI to XP and click Next

The Driver installation should start. If the installer displays a "Digital Signature not found" message. Click Continue Anyway (if this message appears).
Click the Finish button when the installation completes.
Reboot the computer.

Let me know if it installs

Bill

usen100 · 10-12-2009, 02:56 AM

Oh my Bill.. You are right i gave the wrong number or alphabet..Its suppose to be PCI\VEN_14B9&DEV_A504&SUBSYS_50001489&REV_00\4&39A85302&0&10F0? You're right.
I will try to download it and do what you said.
I am so greatful for your support, atleast have learnt alot about this driver thing and from what you have explained to me so far. I'll download it and then let you know.

Thanks so much

**BCCOMP** · 10-12-2009, 06:47 AM
