For Intel updates, you'll want to go to http://tinyurl.com/2rfl4b. That should yield the latest driver package for: 9.0.4.27 Driver for Intel® PRO/Wireless 2200BG/2915ABG Network Connections 10.5.1.75 Driver for Intel® PRO/Wireless 3945ABG Network Connection. Again, remember that replacing the version of the inf and sys files in the wrapper directory may yield unpredictable results, so back up your existing files first, before a reboot. The files should not be locked, so renaming and/or copying over them is simple to do while the system is up. For ThinkPad firmware, use the device driver matrices for ThinkPads at http://tinyurl.com/3znsa and just drill down to your model from there. Note that some of the newer models require online (read: from a Windows desktop) flashing, so that pesky Win partition may just need to be booted. This is particularly true of systems which do/did not ship with diskette drives. -- Lewis ------------------------------------------------------------ Lewis G Rosenthal, CNA, CLP, CLE Rosenthal & Rosenthal, LLC Accountants / Network Consultants New York / Northern Virginia www.2rosenthals.com eComStation Consultants www.ecomstation.com Novell Users Int'l www.novell.com/openenterpriseserver Need a managed Wi-Fi hotspot? www.hautspot.com ------------------------------------------------------------
