Thye both have cd's with them but they give the message that there was an error loading the archive.

Do the CD's include drivers for Linux/Ubuntu?

In general there's no autorun in Linux, possibly because most software is downloaded rather than installed from CD. Although if Ubuntu detects certain CD's it will respond to them appropriately I believe.

Have you tried just plugging in the devices and seeing if they work? Quite often if there's a driver for it you'll already have it.

I've just done some quick googling about the card and it seems that if you have version 5100 then it should work out of the box.

If not there are ways to get around it although I may not be able to help too much.

You could try asking in the Hardware and Laptops (http://ubuntuforums.org/forumdisplay.php?f=332) section about how to get it to work if nobody else replies here.
