Windows 10: Win Vista driver update

I got a computer from work cause the hard drive was bad so I took it home and put the hard drive from my old win vista computer and now I need to update the drivers but my computer wont connect to the internet through WiFi or wired. The computer says the network adapter has a driver or hardware problem. I thought that it was cause I'm running win vista on a newer computer and the hardware isn't compatible but I looked at the realtek website and it is compatible so I'm not sure what else I should try. I want to upgrade to win 10 or 11 but can't connect to the internet to download and tried putt

Replacing Windows Mail in Win-10 with one from Win-Vista.

Clayton, yes you can use your own files, as well realize the files from the tutorial attachments are the exact same thing already coming from Windows Vista - it's all the same.

The tutorial instructions how to do it in every detail are posted Here

Please for your own sake, just be sure you understand the limitations of using the old Vista WinMail client out of it's native environment inside of Windows7/8/10 by reading through the disclaimer, and the Bug List that's linked on the page there, and then decide if you want to do it and if it's right for you.
Feel free to post your questions over there too.

 

Chipset drivers for Win 7

Yes, just use the Vista x64 drivers. Should work.

 

Vista Pre-SP1 vs. Vista SP1

I've been Windows Updating for two straight days and I finally saw SP1. If you want to troubleshoot it, follow these steps:

• Show hidden updates
• Manually install any failed updates (google the KB_____ and install from the windows site)
• Make sure everything in Device Manager is good to go

I had to do step two for like 4 or 5 updates to be able to see SP1.

Any other benchmarks you guys want to see? I might try PCMark05 (I think it works on Vista).
