If there was a page about XP, I read it, but most of the time there was very
little text saying "Windows XP will automatically detect bla bla bla....
then put the CD in your drive bla, bla, bla...."

I followed the golden rule, but after copying the drivers to the harddisk,
all installations ended up with an incomplete message. I did not try
