I had two choices : either upgrading with DVD 10.2 or going to the path
that Collins suggested.

I tried the first option because it looks easier for me :). Fortunately,
after upgrading to 10.2, the driver is installed properly and my
workstation is up and running now. 

Saying that does not mean that 10.1 does not support my gigabyte
motherboard ( GA-965G-DS3 ). I have the same motherboard at home and
10.1 works just fine. My problem is the driver for this motherboard was
not on the drive at the first place.

Thanks everybody.

This system has X6800/2G/Raptor-X and my java tool runs so nice. :)
