Fix-it 3: Computer recovery

I was recently called out to finish off the final stages of a computer reinstall. Apparently there were problems with the video card drivers as well as the ADSL modem. First the video card.
After consulting the manuals the appropriate drivers were downloaded and installed - at which point the computer promptly rejected them. After opening up the computer it quickly became apparent that the manuals were from a previous computer - doh! After downloading the correct drivers relating to the actual hardware it was all sweet. To get the modem working the ISP software was promptly installed and was off and away.
