    I have just tried to extract files with Installshield Cabinet File Viewer, and when I extract the cab file, all I get is a file that says it is a zero KB cab file. Something is wrong here. I just posted previously about creating a driver disk so I can install XP. This is version 15 of the file viewer. One post I read says: "Note that there are well-known incompatibilities between different InstallShield versions:
    there is not a 100% quarantee that the latest IsCabVu build,
    will work flawlessly against older .cab/.hdr archives...
    (which by the way,also seem to have become a bit rare/'obsolete' nowadays)." http://www.malwaredomainlist.com/forums/index.php?topic=1933.0

    What should it look like?

    So you're trying to extract a driver from the installer?
    Maybe run the installer then a driver backup program like
    Double Driver to extract the driver files you need.
