Issues after XP install - Help?

Yea Updated All my drivers on a perfectly working cab thinking it would help...  :banghead: nothing worked until i re-installed old versions.

Donkbaca:

So you are saying unisntall the drivers, and instead of using the windows update driver, find an older radeon 9600 driver?

Ok, I'll try that.

Out of an abundance of frustration, I bought a 3.0ghz core 2 duo that is on its way.  Its a USFF, so it only has the onboard video and no expansion slots, so I can't upgrade it.  I am thinking for my purposes, the onboard video should be good enough.  It supports direct x 9.c. and pixel shader 3 tech.  If that doesn't work I'll just use my core 2 quad I have as my mame and use the core 2 duo as my desktop.  Still, though, I would like this thing to get off the ground, since now I have an extra computer, an extra 15 inch lcd, extra joysticks... If I can salvage this PC I'll have enough left over to make a nice bartop.

Any ideas on why the ethernet card won't play nice?


Malenko:

you can send me all your extra stuff, I'll find a use for it.

Donkbaca:

Nah, you've got enough stuff. 

Come on nerds, help me fix this thing!  Surely there are some nerds on here, we can't all be geeks...

that's not much incentive to help :p


ok, Network card. Have you tried bypassing the router? have you tried using a different CAT5 cable (or plugging a different computer in at that location)? does the NIC work in another machine? you sure its pulling an IP or is it getting an APIPA?
