You could try using the update driver function in Device Manager. If the proper driver is located on your XP cd, Windows should find it for you and install it.

Sorry, I don't think I made myself clear. I meant for you to use Device Manager to seacrh for the individual driver you need to replace. If you go into Control Panel, select Device Manager, then find the hardware with the corrupt driver. Right click on the entry and choose "update driver software". When windows asks you where to search for the driver software, choose browse my computer for driver software. Then under search for driver software, browse for the drive in which you have your XP cd inserted and let windows search for the driver. If the right driver is on the cd it should find and install it.

Your welcome! I'm glad you got the problem sorted out. As for your other question, I have never tried it so I don't know for sure, but if I had to guess, I would say no, I don't think Windows will let you do that. Maybe some one else, who has better knowlege of this, will be good enough to post.

No, it simply won't work.

Thanks luffy, thats what I suspected, but wasn't 100% sure of.
