Rightee... Since Google isn't my friend :eek: I need YOUR help.

My computer started chrashing a while ago, and after a while I decided to reinstall windows, but when I decided to backup my files, windows wouldn't start. Thank you very much, Bill Gates...

So... I reinstalled windows and now all the drivers are GONE!! :eek:
I need some help - How the heck do I get those drivers back? How do I install them?
Please note that the computer with the issues is OFFLINE, so updating with windows live update or whatever it's called won't work.

Humm I feel sorry to tell you u lost evary thing, pro u did uninstall the driver

Hey, S*** happens. All you have to do is to accept it.

No you didn't lose everything. If you have the documentation for your PC it's as simple as visiting the website of your PC manufacturer from a friend's or work computer and downloading all the drivers you need, then burn to CD or copy to USB key. If your PC doesn't have that support function from the manufacturer then you may need to open the case and not the make/model of your network card, or you can use a free program called Belarc to get that info (then get the drivers from another internet-connected computer).

I'll try that when dad comes back home from work, because I have NO idea where the documentation of it is. Anyone else with some easy solutions?

Do you a CD that came with the computer that has the drivers? What make and model is the computer?

Nope, no CD and I have no idea of what the model name is... :(

It would be easier if your system booted to the internet, then it would simply

Be a matter of getting Windoze to install the correct drivers...

As a last resort use another computer to download * Belarc * to CD and

Install it on driverless computer to get ( info to retrieve your drivers) , burn your

Drivers on a CD and keep it handy in case you have future problems...

There are 2 programs I would strongly suggest you put on your computer

A firewall called Comodo and an anti-virus program called Avast...

Many people don't believe in protection until their computer is infected!!

As a last resort many libraries have computers and could help you burn CD'S

Whoopa, I got a mobile usb- modem and now I can connect to the internet with that computer. In a matter of fact, I'm posting this post from the troubled computer. So, how do I install drivers with windows update (or whatever)?

On your keyboard press the "windows key" next to the "ctrl" key and hold that down and press the pause break key on the top right of the keyboard once. Click hardware and then click device manager. This will show you all the drivers on your computer. If you see any yellow question mark or exclamation mark it would mean you have some drivers missing. If there are none that means your windows (xp?vista?) has installed all the divers.

To updated your computer and protect it from future viruses and spyware . Open internet explorer and click Tools>windows update

Run the anti spyware remove programs spybot
Security News from the net: Spybot search and destroy spyware and popups
And click the immunize button in it .So it blocks bad pages from coming to your computer.
