Thats why your getting problems. Vista already has the drivers installed...
Hey...that's what I was gonna say....and ya beat me to it

Re: Unistalling Vista/Replacing Vista
I did some hunting around and I'm sure your using the G33 chipset. To download the drivers go here:
Download Search Results
You'll need download '2'.This'll give you a utility to place the drivers on a floppy. Make sure you look at the 'READ ME' and you should be good to go. Any problems just ask..

Jeeez...this is the 3rd time I've written this!!! Page keeps 404ing on me Grrr....

LOL.. I'm sure it's this site as no others do the same... Maybe the servers are in need of a clean?

Re: Unistalling Vista/Replacing Vista
Okay I'll try it though the computer never came with a floppy drive. I'll either get one, or use a USB flash drive.
