No XP driver for Network Card

Did you absolutely try every part of Intel's website for
anything related? XP is supposed to be able to use
Windows 98 drivers I think though. Stability may be an
issue if you do that however, so that's a last resort.
There's also a website that tries to have drivers for
nearly everything. www.driverguide.com You have to sign
up, but at least it's free. (Albiet likely to put you on
half a million spamlists if you ask me, but that can't be
proven.)

Greetings --

Actually, WinXP can often use Win2K-specific drivers when there
are no WinXP-specific drivers available, but trying to use
Win9x-specific drivers is almost always a disaster. Doesn't really
matter in this case, though, as the WinXP NIC drivers are readily
available from Intel.
