Just bought this computer...
http://www.geeks.com...S...R&cpc=RECOM

Plugged in and everything and installed XP Pro...
But when I tried to connect to the internet it failed and I think its the fact that they said the computer didn't come with device drivers. My router is the Actiontec MI424WR and I have the 1394 Network Adapter...

Please help me, its really depressing so tell me what else you need to know...
Or point to the direction I can get the drivers... I've tried everything...

PS: BTW, my other computer that connects through the same router is functioning properly..

That is a computer with no operating system on it.
You'd have to put one in - XP or Vista - and then download all the drivers from the HP website for that particular model.
