(compatible) XP drivers for Compaq Presario F762AU

Drivers! drivers! drivers! where are thou? clumsy me had not kept a bookmark on the sites i had been to get them, but it's not too hard to search again - still pretty fresh in my memory

here are the compilation of links recovered:

1) lowyat.net forum * contains alternative set of drivers as posted by others
http://forum.lowyat.net/topic/596572

2) mj 梦境
http://hi.baidu.com/jtwak/blog/item/...

3) hp customer care
http://h10025.www1.hp.com/ewfrf/wc/...

4) hpipoh.com forum * site now appears to be down
http://hpipoh.com/modules/wfdownloads/viewcat.php?cid=25

wasn't able to find the link to where i got the sound drivers, but there are a bunch of similiar one on the net though, take this for example:

5) arjunjain @ livejournal.com *refer updates portion

p/s: not all drivers from one specific site will work - it's a trial and error thingy

Here i have also uploaded my backup copy of the workable drivers:

All in all, these drivers worked flawlessly fine but it is not subjected that every other laptop will be working fine and i will take no blame for anything that happens...

A gentle disclaimer, install at your own risk~
