unless your XP is "special" it should be where jim said it would be .( otherwise the OS would never find it ) ..even "nlighting" XP down to bare bones minimum doesnt usually move the place where drivers roost ..
so how is your vista ? after accusing us of being "secretive" you went quiet ..
makes one very reticent to spend time on "your problems" in other threads ..
especially as you miss out the really important items like why not just re-install the XP OS ( on the original XP disc ..or the Dell OEM one that came with the machine ) and thus avoid the grief ..and again ..if you think that your ethernet itself may be bad ..run a live penguin at it and see ..on OEM doze your drivers are machine specific ..but they dont move around :)
