just built a new pc
mobo - asus rampage II gene
running winxp pro
the ethernet device is detected, yet the driver cannot be installed
all other drivers have been installed
within the device manger the ethernet is the only driver left with a yellow question
ive tried to install the driver by aloocating the direct file path to the existing LAN floder on the mobo cd no luck tried to update using winxp disc no luck
what else can do to get my ethernet driver operational?
thx

1) Have you gone to ASUS's download page for the drivers for your motherboard?
2) If problem persists Check if Windows reports any problem devices
First make sure all your devices are connected and powered on
Click Start->Run, enter: msinfo32. Click the + sign next to Components to expand it
Click Problem Devices. Anything appear?
If yes, click on it, Ctrl-A to select all, Ctrl-C to copy it, Ctrl-V to paste into next post

was able to download a working ethernet driver from www.usa.asus.com
as for why my mobo cd wasnt supporting the driver install is beyond me.
my dream machine is now fully operational
