Hi I just bought an
Intel Core 2 DUO LGA775 E6600 2.40GHz Retail / Asus P5W DH Deluxe / 2GB Corsair XMS2-6400C4 DDR2 Dual Channel Kit - Bundle a new PSU and a Zalman cooler.

I currently do not have the internet cause I recently moved and would like to know if there are any drivers, tools etc I need!? I just been using 939 for 3 years or so now and am not familiar with Core 2 DUO.

Is the installation of the CPU similar? I need to download drivers at work so let me know what I need. (PS: I am using Vista)

You don't need a driver for your E6600. I'm sure you're smart enough to know that you'll need to load the chipset drivers.

Good to see you Julian - When I use to lurk on the AMD side of the forums I remember seeing you all the time.

only drivers you need are the lastest chipset and what ever vid/sound drivers you need.
