Hi, I'm not sure if you have solved your problem by now. If you have the disk then you have the driver. I'm not sure if I even needed to use the driver on the disk or not. Once I changed the authority and rebooted, it found the card fine and I think it was "plug and play" from there. If you DO need to install the driver, reboot then: Start --> Control panel --> System (then hardware tab) --> Device Manager. Expand the Network Adapters "tree" and Right Click on the realtec card and select "Update Driver" then click "install Software Automatically (make sure you put your disk into the drive first!) Hope this helps, Dan
