Help needed for Asus A7N8X Deluxe Network
I bought a new system, put it all together and installed XP Home. I'm using the integrated Nvidia port right now, but the same problem happens if i try to 3Com port. It recognizes there is a cable there (lights on port and on cable box are blinking -> data going somewhere), but I can't get network access of any sort, local or internet. I was going to try to update the Nvidia drivers, but they need XP service pack 1 which in turn needs the internet to install... The ports are active in the BIOS, i checked that already. I've searched in the forums for similar problems, found a few, but other than saying "I got it fixed, thanks a lot for the help," they didn't say how they fixed it (and apparently don't get on any more or else they'd see the pm's). Here are my specs:
Asus A7N8X Deluxe rev 2.0
AMD Athlon XP 3000+
2x512Mb Samsung PC3200 400MHz Dual Channel DDR
WD HD 120GB 7200rpm
WD HD 60GB 7200rpm
ATI Radeon 9700 Pro video card
Hercules Digifire 7.1 sound card
LG CD/RW 52x24x52
Windows XP Home
Any suggestions on getting the network to work?
