Help with PST drivers! (v220)

So I'm in the process of installing PST and getting it to work, and like an idiot I cancel out the request to find the drivers (3 or so?) that Windows XP tries to find. I've read that once you cancel that out, it's hard to get the drivers back. Can anyone help me? I just need to get WinXP to prompt me to point it to my PST folder. I've uninstalled PST & MPT several times, uninstalled the modem drivers, unplugged and plugged the cable, etc. I'm stuck. I've tried to search on here but to no avail. All I can find is "Well if you cancel out these drivers, it's hard to get them back."

how important is your current setup of win xp and do you have a xp cdrom. you might have to reformat your hd to get it back because xp remembers what you tell it to and not to do. you can try editing your registry but i have no idea what the files are called. have you tried to update your usb driver? might work

good luck....

your a veteran and your tellin this guy to format???..oh well...
dude just find the drivers and install them manually.. they should be in the mpt.or pst files..somewhere..i forget the exact file extension but the drivers are ib the software.......
never format your hard drive unless you absolutly have too..
id rather not have a cool phone then have to go through a format but thats just me..

p.s. you never "cancelled" the drivers .you just told your operating system not to look for them.....
