In the same place than your windows drivers: www.nvidia.com
But I do not know why the hell they do not include them on the cd!!!

No idea. Try giving more information about the soundcard.

I suppose you are talking about wine or any of their variants like... winex?cedega? http://www.winehq.org/
Are you really sure your soundcard and your lan do not work?
Originally posted by mlombaard actually, i recently got myself a brand new pentium4 3ghz hyperthreading rig, so i suppose i shud get the ia64 drivers.
I doubt it's 64-bit architecture, but if it is it should say so on the box (retail) or you might have to do a little more digging if you bought it OEM.
<-------note my post count, I'm still learning linux myself, but have a good general knowledge of all-things-computing. The 64-bit probably refers to the OS, too, but 64-bit OS's are only used on 64-bit hardware, so the least common denominator is hardware.
I'd would confirm whether you have a 64-bit proc before installing 64-bit drivers for your card - i don't know what problem/damage, if any, could occur.
