Dear Friends,

Please help me with native driver for Windows XP 32 bit (not for 64 bit!) for one Intel network chip (discontinued).

Intel 82579LM (wired gigabit NIC)

also me need native driver for Windows XP 32 bit ˜(not for 64 bit!) for wireless chip (discontinued):

Intel Centurion Advanced-N 6205 (WiFi chip)

Yes, i understand what these device are discontinued but in any case i'm need of these drivers.

I had read what Intel has delete drivers for discontinued NICs for some reason. I will not have any claims to Intel and not to all, me need drivers.

Please help me!

Thanks in advance!

Sorry, but these are, as you know, discontinued.

And, XP has not been supported since April 2014. Time for you to move to a modern, supported platform.

Just an opinion...

There is no support for discontinued products. Try your motherboard manufacturer.

Also, as I suggested, it is time for you to break your XP habit and move to a platform that is supported.

It is Dell Latitude 6320. On Intel site is many drivers but i not found the true drivers for these NICs especially for Win XP 32 bit. For another system - no problems.

PS. For some tasks me need the Windows XP 32 bit. At now it is problem ...

Software for XP that has not been updated at this point, is ridiculous.

Good luck.
