Unable to find drivers for compaq Presario V 6409 Tu notebook

Recently purchased Compaq Presario V6409 TU notebook. It came with freedos pre installed. No OS or driver cd is provided. I am unable to find network card driver after googling and searching on compaq website.

Guys can you tell me which network card driver is generally provided with compaq Laptops.

Please Reply ASAP

Update:

Doesn't Compaq support u guys looking for drivers???
They should have been on the cd supplied with it or on the hdd which has the OS & the drivers in another secured partition when u buy it.

guys, i recently bought my V6409TU for 37.7K Rs...

well, all is working fine , except the Infrared. The machine does have an
Infrared receiver Icon present near the earphone jack, but I am unable to get it to work using the latest HP Pavilion remote control.

I have confirmed from the Customer support that this model does have an
IR receiver.

I think there is some problem with either the driver you downloaded or with your xp installation.

May be you are trying to install vista driver on xp. There are diff drivers for xp and vista . Download xp driver and install again.
