ST: I need tech help. Mom's comp won't connect to the internet through the ethernet port thats on the MB.

Posted by lileve (aka lileve) Feb 25 '09, 15:45

I installed another card into a PCI slot. Still no connection after rebooting

I've uninstalled the drivers through the device manager and they reinstall without even rebooting and they still don't work.

What to do? I almost feel like getting her a wireless N usb adapter.

Thanks in advance.
