Is it possible A7N8X-E Deluxe motherboard won't accept nic's?
I've tried everything I can think of but can't get this network going. I
know the nic's work, the cable, ics, addresses..everything I can think of. I've done this half a dozen times. Got xp pro on the host, 98 on the client. The nic's always worked before I installed xp. Can't get the motherboard's built-in nic's to work...no matter what I try. Installed pci nic's that I know have worked...still nothing. Cable used to work but no go there either. No ics on the client but did use the xp network wizard...still no go. The network connection shows an X thru the network nic but the nic's are all approved by the ms compatibilitity thingie...still no go. Nic's previously worked...cable previously worked...but can't get past the X. The nic's are properly installed...I think....usual software installations...nothing untoward. On every level...everything looks a go except the X...but it just won't work...grrrr...Pinging don't work cuz it doesn't seem to recognize the network nic's...tried a couple others with full uninstallation and reinstallation. Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated...thinking it's the Asus A7N8X-E Deluxe motherboard. Is it possible the MB just won't let the nic's talk? Thanks. |

I think it is unlikely to be the motherboard. Do the lights on the NIC
itself light up when the cable is plugged in? -- Ken Wickes [MSFT] This posting is provided "AS IS" with no warranties, and confers no rights. "Clarity" wrote in message ...
