Which drivers to install after basic Win XP Install?

Hi,
I have a refurbished T61 which I installes Win XP SP2 on, basic installation from scatch (and yes, an XP Pro nowadays).

Now, in the Device Manager, I have a number of questionmarks, some of which I can identify (Biometric etc.), some of which I have no idea what drivers to install. My product number is 7661Y8K.

The following ones are unclear to me:

- Videocontroller
- Videocontroler (VGA compatible)
- PCI Device
- SM-Bus-Controller
- unknown Device (Detail says "standard ISA Bridge" - translated from German)
- unknown Device (Embedded Microsoft ACPI-conform controller)
- Network Controlle (I assume that's the WiFi one, but which?)

Also, I would appreciate if someone could give a list of "what to install additionally to get a full featured T61" ...

Thanks in advance for your help!

The simplest thing would be to download the Lenovo System Update for WinXP and let it install all the drivers.

I would follow this advise and have this utility find what you need versus you guessing what you need
