Did you try Evolt.org ? They have I.E. 5.5 SP2. Huge download. 80 megs or so. If
you can't, possibly someone with a burner, can download it and burn a copy for you.
As well, you didn't mention the make size or brand.
May need to go to the manufacturer's site and download chipset and/or video drivers..
