I have been looking for AGES for drivers to try and fix this problem. Windows XP, freshly installed on a formatted hard drive, suddenly has a major issue with my Ethernet port. The port itself lights up, but the computer doesn't recognize the controller and smacks it on the "Other devices" tab of the Device Manager. I've tried to move drivers from a flash drive to the desktop, but with no luck. It seems as though the computer is refusing to accept the drivers. I enabled the LAN settings in the BIOS. I've lost it for help, and I would love if someone could actually give me some working information, or at least keep up a good conversation so I know where I am going! Please help! - Yanni
Oh, P.S. As well as the Ethernet Controller, the "Other devices" tab shows the PCI Device, SM Bus Controller, and Video Controller (VGA Compatible), all with a question mark and a smaller exclamation mark.
