Taylor, 

If the Yellow Exclamation mark is still there, right click on the device and select 
Remove. OK your way out and reboot.

This should cause windows to identify the device again and install a driver. As gewg_ 
said remove the old driver first, so it's not there to be re-installed.

Be sure you know the exact location of the new Driver, floppy is probably best. You 
should be prompted thru the driver process when you re-boot. In the event another 
driver is installed, go to Device MGR and click Update Driver, then point windows 
to the location of the one you want installed.
