Red face No video Controller (VGA) driver after replacing Vista with XP on my Compaq desktop

No video controller (VGA) driver is available after installing WinXP.
I downgraded from Vista to Windows XP Professional (5.1, Build 2600) Service Pack 3 (2600.xpsp_sp3_gdr.090206-1234)
System Manufacturer: Compaq-Presario
System Model: GN582AA-ABA SR5250NX
BIOS: BIOS Date: 08/10/07 13:50:06 Ver: 08.00.13
Processor: Intel(R) Pentium(R) Dual CPU E2140 @ 1.60GHz (2 CPUs)
Memory: 1016MB RAM
I cannot run games because the video controller is not enabled without the driver. Where can I find a driver?

this is the graphic driver from Intel http://downloadcenter.intel.com/Deta...835&l ang=eng

Set a System Restore Point before installing driver just in case
Start / All Programs / Accessories / System Tools / System Restore – click radio button Create a restore point and follow instructions
