Comment: Hey all,
Just bought this MOBO in a real $heap deal. http://www.dfi.com.tw/Product/xx_product_spec_details_r_us.jsp?PRODUCT_ID=1982&CATEGORY_TYPE=MB&SITE=NA Am going to start building tonight at home
and won't have access to net till i'm done.
What is the difference in the two LAN
features below and which should i use? "nVIDIAŽ nForce2 MCP and ICS1893 Phy chips" I'm currently running a Motorola cable modem
and using a cheap NIC card from the cable
company (cough "criminals").

Reply: (edit)Ok got the computer running fine
(2500xp running @ 200FSB = 3200xp).
WinXP sees the on board Nvidia Lan but
I can't connect to the internet (!).
I snooped around in the BIOS and noticed
that there's a place to insert a
MAC address. Do I need to input my
Motorola's cable modem MAC address here?
If i do, why didn't I have to with the NIC
card in my old system?
Any help would be greatly appreciated.
