inspiron 530 w/XP needs ethernet driver
I just got an inspiron 530 and replaced
vista with XP. Everything is working fine EXCEPT for
ethernet. XP says there is no driver. I think that
the ethernet card in the computer is a
"Integrated 10/100 Ethernet".
Is there a driver I can get to run this card
under XP, or do I have to get a new card?

You have an intel based ethernet device. You can find the dell approved drivers here: http://ftp.us.dell.com/network/R159293.EXE
You can get more recent drivers at intel.com: http://downloadcenter.intel.com/Detail_Desc.aspx?ProductID=879&DwnldID=4275&lang=eng
For these drivers to work, you must first install the chipset drivers. The dell approved drivers are here: http://ftp.us.dell.com/chipset/R158363.exe
You may also be able to find more recent chipset drivers at intel.com
