Yes you can ,if you computer is fairly new(Vista it must be)


best shot is to go to manufacture website and get the drives from there.If you friend computer is exact model as yours,


then click on C drive and look for a folder name 'DRIVERS"


copy the folder into your thumb or floppy ,then go to your computer and Paste all file in your DRIVERs folder ,Now restart your computer it will give you pop-up windows about new drivers and it will install them one by one from ,your driver you can also update your driver and when it will ask you where to look for it let it brows in your Thumb drive or whatever you have the drivers folder in.
