If you have a dual boot, or access to the windows/inf/ or winnt/inf/ folder of an XP or w2k system (with an fa310tx), tell win2003 to look there for the drivers, it worked for me on my dual boot.

I have the same problem.

Do you know which INF file in the \WINDOWS\INF folder to use with the FA310TX?

I think it's the net21x4.inf. Anyway, I had serious problems installing this but it's working now.

I followed dandlion's tip (see above). I burned the entire WinXP \windows\inf\ directory to a CD and let Windows Server 2003 hardware wizard search it. It found a matching file. Then it needed ngrpci.sys but it couldn't get it from i386\driver.cab (any Windows version) so I extracted in manually.

(Actually, when I had ngrpci.sys on floppy the driver guide said it could not find the path specified. When copied to C: it finally worked.)

I'm using ngrpci.sys:

Version: 4.56.16.10
Desc: NDIS 5.0 miniport driver
Internal name, and original name: Fa310nd5.sys
Size: 32840 bytes

The required INF file is netngr.inf

I have posted the two necessary files at
