XP Drivers for Optiplex gx150
I am trying to install Win XP Pro on a friend's GX150 after a complete crash. He has no manuals or setup disks, and I am unfamiliar with this computer. I found my way to the appropriate Dell.com driver downloads site. That's the "good news." The bad news is that there are so many drivers listed in each of the driver categories, that I have no idea which ones to select. I would appreciate any guidance on selection of system drivers. I would need the right motherboard sytem drivers, hard disk controller drivers, etc. Can anyone "out there" give me some clues? Thanks in advance for any help!

The GX150 had Win2K as the newest OS, an its driver list is:
There are probably other drivers needed depending on what optional hardware is in the system (e.g., video card, PCI audio card, etc). Some of these drivers are going to be part of WinXP (e.g., the Ultra ATA controller) so they probably won't be needed, but if there are XP versions they would be on the support site.
