    Erm, I'd imagine you would extract the zip and then find an exe, usually called "setup.exe" or similar which should guide you through the process.

    Ok

    Well assuming you are running xp, extract the zip file to a folder and you should see a collection of files in that folder something like this...



    There should be a file similar to the one i highlighted there, just open that file and run through the wizard..

    btw which motherboard are you trying to install these onto?

    sorry if i had seemed sarcastic in my last post, but it wasn't intentional.
