Why does this driver Chipset_WINXP32_V665.zip download as a Zip files but when I right click and say explore it SHOWS Chipset_WINXP32_V665.rar. I cannot extract with either winzip or winrar. What is going on here?
Am I a goober?Where did you download it from? It MAY not be YOUR problem (yet).I downloaded it from the ASUS web site.
On the 3rd computer I tried, I was able to extract the zip file to the rar file, then extract the contents.
I think I have a winzip issue on one machine but this was really wierd to SEE a RAR packaged in a ZIP file fro ASUS.
Thanks for your help
 That is strange. Sometimes PEOPLE download BIOS updates from the net at random (as opposed to the legit site) and get BAD surprises.A CHIPSET driver is not a BIOS update.

You may be able to force it to open by first opening Winrar and then browsing for the file.

It could also be an archived file. Simply double click on it to unpack/install the contents.
