Now all i have to do is install my windows vista upgrade.

mate please stop messing around with this friends PC. No offence but you do not have the skills required to get XP running properly ( finding drivers is a basic job) the more you mess the more of a mess you can make. When I started I started small and learnt as I went on
BTW I have a driver dvd that pretty much covers all drivers for XP it may be worth your while sourcing one of those if you do indeed wish to continue learning. Guys sell them on ebay but you can get them free. If you want to send me a SAE I will post you a dvd full of drivers
