After I formatted my drive and reinstalled Win XP, the networkdriver was deleted. As this is an old computer built by myself, i do not have any drivers on CD. I foun out that the driver I need is "intel 82801db lan controller" but can't seem to find it anywhere? Where can I download the driver?

I'm pretty new to this so bare with me. I'm trying to install XP onto a new system I just purchased. I was able to use the OEM reinstall CD to get XP MCE 05 installed, and here are the chipset specifics...
My problem is I don't want MCE, and I have two other alternatives. I have an Dell OEM XP Home re-install from the previous system, and I have a Dell OEM XP Pro ISO. Both aren't able to recognize the HDD. I've searched vigorously to try and find the F6 drivers and the best I can do will be 82801FR (ICH6R). I'm going to just give it a shot right now while waiting for a response and slipstream them w/ nLite into the ISO of XP Pro. If it doesn't work, I'll try to slipstream them onto the Home installation, but honestly will they work? 82801FB is the base model from what I've found and I have no idea if they're backward compatible cause frankly I'm not a hardware aficionado.
Thank you! I will give this a shot. I still only see that when being discussed, they only refer to ICH6R and rarely ever make reference to the base model ICH6. I will however try the package and report back. Thanks!
Edit: if this *doesn't* work... is there a way to extract the drivers from the re-install disk that actually did work? I took a few seconds to quickly look through and wasn't able to find them, but if it's possible I will take time to dig deeper.
I just downloaded the RAID/SATA/AHCI drivers for 925x chipset off Intel's website named iata70_enu.exe. They contain data for ICH6R and ICH6M, so they should be the ones. This topic should be moved anyway, either to nLite or Frenando_1's Integration of Intel's SATA/AHCI/RAID Drivers, so I suggest you ask Frenando_1 take a look.
Thanks Sp0iLedBrAt. I also grabbed the iata70_enu.exe driver set from Intel's site, and they appear to be the same as Frenando_1's pack. I was able to finally get it working and I believe the problem was nLite's burning process. I instead decided to create an image and use ImgBurn, and this seems to have corrected the problem. Could be some sort of compatibility issue with nLite and my burner, who knows. However, it would appear that indeed, the ICH6R drivers did work for ICH6 base and should be recommended.
Hello.
First of all, thanks for accept me in the forum
I recently installed win98SE on a Compaq Deskpro with a pentium iii 733 i bought. I already installed the chipset, video and sound drivers and everything seems to work well on windows. I can hear music on winamp and the windows system sounds works well too, but when i run a DOS game like wolfenstein 3d, doom or descent under windows, i cant make it sound. The only sound i have is the sound FX ones (the shots and the soldiers cry, etc)
According to Everest, this board sound card is a Intel 82801ba(m) AC 97 ich2 and i spend a entire day by searching drivers. The only one that works on windows at least is a ADI SOUNDMAX one, but every other that i downloaded just failed.
It's your soundcard . You get sound effects such as speech because of Windows 98 SE integrated Sound Blaster Pro emulator . But that emulator does not have an FM synth, so you do not get music. Your sound card has no native Sound Blaster compatibility.
There is an experimental and unsupported VDMSound 2.1.0 for Win98. Frankly, I never tried it it was available too late for me that I didn't care about Win98 on real machine anymore. If you managed to get it working, then you will get SoundBlaster and FM music from Win98 DOS mode through AC97. I tried VDMSound on Win2k/XP and it worked within the NT DOS mode for DOS games. As machines get more powerful, just use DOSBox for DOS games and play them nicely on windowed mode.
Thanks for your replies. Thats just a project i wanna make for play that old games like my chilhood. I have a modern pc and tried dosbox sucessfully, but i wanted to do it on a ctr and shitty speakers, but my main pc only supports hdmi and, while the emulation is near perfect, its not the same.
However, ill use dosbox until i find a soundblaster card
Ill try to pick one of these, but i found near me a sound blaster 128 pci. I know that fm emulation will be emulation, but will that work for wolfenstein and doom? At least until i find a yamaha card
Edit: i seen a live too, but i dont know whats the version
Thanks
I most likely will work . what I meant by "sucks" , is that tjhe FM sounds really crappy . SB PCI 128 and SB Live have pretty much the same functionality under DOS, the Live is better featured under Windows . If you are not using multiple audio outs, the Live cards are pretty similar .
