Downgrading HP Pavilion a6300t from Vista to XP

I recently downgraded from Vista to XP on an HP Pavilion Desktop PC a6300t - the operating system is running but the HP site does not have the XP drivers only the Vista ones.

 

Can anyone help me find these drivers?

Please use plain text.

Intel Chipset,(install and reboot before other drivers):

Realtek 8101E LAN:

HD Audio from Realtek:

This is a CTO model,so you could have Intel onboard graphics or Nvidia addon card.

OR,Nvidia Graphics_go here and use Option 2 to scan for correct driver:

Your machine likely has the wireless adapter too,which is usually hardest to find correct drivers for.If the driver below doesn't work,go to Device Manager and find the hd id  in the Properties of adapter and post it.

 

Try first,notice it requires XP SP2>> HERE

 

 

You could also try scanning with RadarSync which some have reported good results with:
