I had to format my laptop and reinstall windows xp, as well as install my drivers. My laptop model is a T40. Now this is the website that i need to download my drivers from(only the T40 cololum):https://www-307.ibm.com/pc/support/site.wss/document.do?sitestyle=lenovo&lndocid=MIGR-46258

Now under the section Networking: Ethernet and Networking:Wireless, theres a whole bunch of different networking cards. How do i know which is equipped in my laptop?? I cant find out since the hardware is not listed in my device manager, since i didnt install the drivers yet. I tried searching for my model online but even they dont state what networking cards i have. Yesterday i tired installing every driver and testing it out but i had no such luck.

I appreicate any help.

In these cases I usually take a screenshot of the device manager’s full list of devices.

It’s a very important thing to do. Before formatting, that is.

What you need to do is find your ethernet card’s hardware ID thru device manager, and pray that a google search of that hwid will get you the drivers you need.
