[DuoList] Re: Wired Ethernet for 2400c woes! Argh!

The GV drivers are available as a download, it is called an update, but 
is is a full install.

You must make it think that you already installed the drivers.

To do this:
You must extract the tome and drag one of GV extensions to the system 
folder.
Then run the update install, the software finds the extension and then 
installs what is needed to complete the install.
