You can open the driver details button on the driver tab in the WinXP device manager to make sure that you are getting the proper .sys file for your card. The .inf file is probably buried in the C:\drivers\... directory. You may have to install the driver again to see where WinXP decided to put the .inf file. It will normally have the same file name as the .sys file, but it could be different. Sam Lewis wrote: > On Mon, Dec 28, 2009 at 9:18 PM, Lewis G Rosenthal >> Hmmm...
