Drivers are normally found at the website of the manufacturer. Have you tried there, or have you tried www.google.com/linux?

ok i found the drivers and installed them but he keeps saying it isnt there i changed the irc to every thing but it it keeps saying: the advice is not there

Now I am confused...

What is the hardware you are trying to install? From where did you find the drivers? How did you install them? Can you copy your error messages into your next post, please.

so i saw nothing @ network devices so i installed the drivers of nvidia but it keeps saying there is no device

Are you certain that there is a n/w card there? I ask because I thought I had one on my mobo but found I didn't.

If you have a card there, see if it needs enabling in the BIOS.

i want to have a multi boot so i can game in xp and use for websites the linux

What is the name of the driver? does it end in .run?

What exactly did you do to install it?

lammmetak · 06-01-2003, 01:52 PM
