    Missing drivers after installing win xp

    I reinstalled win xp and now my driver manager is showing that I am missing drivers for the following:

    ethernet controller

    multimedia audio controller

    video controller (VGA compatable)


    I have a dell inspiron 8500 laptop w/2.2 ghz pentium m(4)

    Any help would be appreciated. Thanks!

    No, I have tried many times to load the drivers onto the laptop from the dell resources/driver cd and nothing. Each time it says it cannot find it. I have no sound and I am also concerned about the other drivers missing. How would I go about getting the drivers for the hardware? Thanks.
