I GOT BELLSOUTH ADSL, BUT WINDOWS XP WONT INSTALL NIC CARD DRIVER, SO AFTER DOING EVERYTHING POSSIBLE TO GET THE NIC WORKING, NO LUCK, SO I BOUGHT ANOTHER NIC CARD, A NETGEAR FA 110 NIC CARD AND I WAS GETTING THE SAME DAMN ERROR MESSAGE... BOTH NIC CARDS GET RECOGNIZED BY WIN XP BUT THE OS GIVES ME THE SAME DATA ERROR MESSAGE... I LOOK IN DEVICE MANAGER, AND OF COURSE I DONT SEE NETWORK ADAPTERS, JUST 2 ETHERNET CONTROLLER ERRORS WITH THE QUESTION AND EXCLAMATION YELLOW MARKS !!! SO THEN I FIGURED IT MUST BE A MOTHERBOARD ISSUE WITH THE ASUS A7N266-C... BUT I HAD THE LATEST 4IN1 DRIVERS, LATEST MOTHERBOARD BIOS, I MEAN I DONT KNOW WHAT THE HELL IS GOING ON, AND I HAVE A PCI MODEM AND SOUND CARD WORKING SO I KNOW ITS NOT AN ISSUE WITH THE PCI SLOTS NOT WORKING... DOES ANYBODY HAVE THIS ISSUE WITH WIN XP... WELL THE GOOD THING IS, I WAS ABLE TO FIX THE PROBLEM BY REINSTALLING THE OS WITH THE NIC CARDS ALREADY INSTALLED, AND XP INSTALLED THE DRIVERS... BUT ID STILL LIKE TO KNOW AS A TECH WHAT THE HELL IS UP WITH WIN XP AND THIS WEIRD PROBLEM I HAD !!!!!!!! THANKS FOR RESPONSES IN ADVANCE ...

you were probably shouting too loud,

Get an intel card..
