Windows Xp drivers for Compaq Presario CQ5110F

[supermc]

I recently purchased a Compaq Presario CQ5110F but have to install Windows XP (SP1) because Vista does not support the softwares that I need for works. Could anybody please provide me the XP drivers for the system? Many Many Thanks!

Hi,

Many thanks for the audio and video XP drivers. 

Are there XP network drivers for this box?  I need them bad!

You can try installing the chipset driver from this link which includes network card drivers.

Once you have XP running well with all drivers installed, make an Image of hdd_to easily  reinstall later if needed, no more driver searches.I have been using Macrium lately and it is very good. Will backup to external USB hdd, DVD, network drive,etc. It also creates a bootable cd to boot from and restore your entire OS in the event of problems.

Installed the chipset driver. One device left that Device Manager is still unhappy about: "PCI Simple Communications Controller". Suggestions?

[It's a concern because I'm getting ready to install a PCI audio card...]

[CherylG]

"PCI Simple Communications Controller" is the dialup modem.You could probably get it at Windows Update using 'Custom Scan', but I would just remove it..a plus to that is another free PCI slot.
