    re-installing windows on laptop

    If your disc is pro and laptop has the pro license as well then just use that disc and install it. If laptop has other license (home) then you need to unlock your windows 7 disc. Copy content of that dvd, remove ei.cfg file in the sources folder, and then use oscdimg to make a bootable iso and then just burn it on dvd or make a bootable usb. You can even add latest drivers and updates to that dvd/usb. Here's how and here.

    I installed Windows 2000 on my laptop

    I got really bored yesterday and I installed Windows 2000 on my laptop.

    I have run into a small problem and I was hoping someone could help me out. I thought that I had installed all my device drivers, but then I went and looked at my device manager and I am missing 1 driver:

    PCI Device

    I have no clue what driver I need to install. Everything is working properly. Is there a program that I could download that would help with this sort of thing?
