So I'm getting an HTPC up and running, but the only Windows key I had was for Vista 32bit (:L)

 

Anyways, I'm trying to install the Ethernet driver, but I just get these weird "system files" and "security catalog"?

Yes, I downloaded the drivers from both Acers website (mobo manufacturer) and Broadcom's site (network chipset manufacturer, got same thing)
