Please Help-DLink 530TX Ethernet Driver Re-Install

Please Help a Doofus who right-clicked on her Network Neighborhood Properties and deleted her D-Link 530TX PCI Fast Ethernet Adaptor (Rev c)! D'OH! Now I can't access the Net anymore. With help from my Service Provider, we managed to get the TCP/IP back on, but the IP won't renew. He then suggested that I download the Driver using another computer , burn it to a CD, and try re-installing it to the affected computer. So I've burned the CD, unzipped and extracted all of the files to a Folder on my affected Computer's Desktop, but am unsure what to do now?? Do I click on just the 'Drivers' file in the folder (there's 15 files that extracted), and then on only the 'setup.exe' section in that 'Drivers' file?? Will that do the trick?? :) Any help is MUCH appreciated :) Thanks for your time, AE :)

That should work. If not, use the add new hardware wizard and skip the search. When presented with the list of adapters, choose "have disk" and browse to your folder.

Please Help-DLink 530TX Ethernet Driver Re-Install

Thanks Jacob :) I ended up getting a professional computer tech to help me out (but I was definitely on the right track, I had just clicked on the wrong file in the folder, I clicked on 'Drivers' Folder, and then 'Windows' File, when I should have clicked on 'Drivers' folder and then 'Drivers' file).


On the plus side, besides getting my Ethernet Adaptor up and running, he also hooked up my router, and my new-to-me computer, and my Maxtor external hard-drive. (all the things on my to-do list ;) ) So it was a definite win-win situation :) Thanks again for your reply, Take care, AE :)
