(I'm a different Don, just to make things confusing.) I don't know
about the particular drivers you have, but if the system is working
now you should be able to use the driver update mechanism in Device
Manager. You can direct the updater to your USB stick and Vista
should take it from there, assuming that the drivers are compatible.
