    what do you mean the drivers say? when you try to install them?

    I can download the drivers fine, am using firefox on xp 32bit.

    but, I also have .net up to 4.0 already installed on my pc.

    you can download the .nets from a different pc that is online, save to a flash drive and then install on your pc, but I have not heard of this as .net is an optional thing and xp can work without any .nets.

    I have installed net framework 4. I think I may have confused some 64 bit drivers which said, not 32 bit when I tried to install. I am still working on it but takes time as I have to change hdds for xp till I am satisfied with the installation.
