Has anyone found a good source for driver software for Vista? I need drivers for a Smartlink 56K modem and a D-link wireless NIC. Neither vendor even hints at a Vista Driver.

source of drivers?
The device manufacturer. Even drivers supplied with the operating system were written by the device manufacturer, for inclusion with the base operating system.
Go to their web site.

Unfortunately, none of the manufacturers are listing Vista as an options yet. and the windows XP drivers are being rejected by vista.

Actually, if you search on the websites on "Vista" or "beta" you will find drivers on some of the sites. It is just that most of them don't display the beta drivers as choices on the usual consumer pages.
