    IBM T40, W2K install, drivers, hardware. Model 2373-72U

    I formatted the partition to get rid of XP and installed a fresh W2K.

    Usual driver headaches. I just ordered the recovery CD from IBM to help get it all sorted out. Right now I would love to just get the Ethernet LAN working so I can use my Adelphia Cable modem to surf.

    Device manager shows several not working. One is a PCI device, one the USB controller, one an unknown device. I downloaded Intel Pro Set from the IBM website and installed it already. Anything else to install to get the cable modem uo and flying?

    I also installed the Intel Pro/1000 MT Mobile Connection driver but it appears it needs the card. IS this the wireless card everyone wants and it on back order? My Netgear wireless card no good I take it?

    Thanks for the help
