Hi Terry,

This was the guide I followed - however it was for the nvidia chipset -
however you may be able to get something out of it.
http://www.mind.ca/downloads/Network/nvidia/MCP2/MCP2_NDIS/NV_NDIS_ODI_InstallGuide.pdf

All the drivers you would need should be here:
http://support.intel.com/support/network/sb/CS-006120.htm

The guide discusses a few ways to setup a driver in Ghost, hopefully one
of them works!!

Cheers
