Missing ethernet controller driver.

[Paul_Tikkanen]

Sorry that didn't work.  I wish I could help you further but those were the only drivers I could find from HP.

See if this driver works from an outside source, and if not then I recommend you search the internet by queying the model of the network card and see if you can find anthing else.

Hi:

See if this driver installs the ehternet controller.  Download and install the first one on the list.

Hi Paul

I downloaded the driver as you said and once installation was finished it told me to plug in a PCI card and shutdown ? i dont have that and my Under Device Manager it still is a yellow question mark next to ethernet controller

Hi:

Please post the hardware ID for the ethernet controller. The motherboard specs stated it was a realtek device.

Maybe it is something else.

To find the hardware ID, click on the ethernet controller with the yellow ? mark.

Then click on the Details tab.

Post the hardware ID you see there.
