Hi Keith,
Very briefly, if XP isn't detecting the NIC in the system (it should do
by default unless it shows up as unknown), get the latest Intel chipset
drivers, and if this doesn't fix it then dl the latest nic drivers from
the mobo manufacturer. If you know the chipset, and it is an Intel
chipset, then get the whole shebang from Intel. The router will assign
an IP address (it should be the same as on the original system as the
MAC will be the same if it's the same card) and you should be able to
play immidiately.
Andrew.

Subject: [access-uk] network card and xp
Hi all,
I have just installed xp sp2 on a separate drive and I am having
problems connecting to the net.
I have a vigor 2600 connected to the network card which works perfectly
under windows 2000.
I have downloaded the drivers from intel and ran the install.
In the xp internet setup, I choose the connect to the internet and the
always on option.
If I select the repair option, I get a message saying that an ip could
not be varified and it aborts.
As this works with 2k, I am assuming a driver problem. Where do I check
in xp to see if a network card is active?
This is an onboard network card.
Thanks
Keith
