right can anyone help me with my ethernet doohicky

basically its not showing up in network connections so obviously it needs the driver but i cant find it anywhere.

I've gone into device manager and told it to search the web for updates but it comes back with no results

its a bit of a old system but the board it a asus p3p800 and i running XP

cheers oh mighty org

BTW: thanks to all that helped me in the torrent thread, i eventually got it up to 250 by doing the port forwarding and opening the half opened ports ect so thank you all very much

Need to check the model number, have you tried here?

It could well be disabled in the BIOS so is not installing a driver. Press and hold delete or what ever f button it tells you to on startup and look through all the bios menus. It will be in there somewhere- enable/disable or similar.
