Hello,
I am using 50 Intel DG41RQ Motherbaord with Processor E7400 and 2GB Zion Memory.The problem is when I install windowsXP SP2 and UBUNTU 9.04 the network adapter is showing in windows Xp and when i log into UBUNTU and then into windows XP the network adapter is dissappers from device manager I tried all the troubleshooting methods but I cant get the network adaptor.
1.reinstalled drivers
2.updated the latest bios version
3.reinstall windows and UBUNTU
still it does not appear pls help me my email id is " shijith327565@gmail.com "


pls help me
 
Are Windows and Linux on different machines?? It almost sound like one may be a VM hosted by the other.

I've never seen a network adapter literally disappear from device manager. Or how that could happen merely by logging into Linux. That's a new one for me. Can you post a before and after picture?

I had the same problem, but with a live linux cd (knoppix). I dont know why Linux "deactivate" the Realtek LAN. To solve this trouble, I updated the BIOS version and then I reseted the BIOS (via jumper in MB). When I did this, XP shows me the LAN. But, unfortunately, I didnt load linux after XP recognize the LAN.

Hope this help.
