In case you cannot find the drivers, a fallback is presented at the end of the document in the additional info section, however, note that this is NOT guaranteed to work, Fernando's drivers have been tested and so would be the first choice when choosing between drivers.

It is recommended to make an ISO first and then burn the disc with disc verification on to make sure the burning of the disc doesnt cause any issues. Please note that not all of these ids are verified the entries with question marks could not be found at the time, so if you run into any of them please update the table but the list should serve to narrow down the possibilities in case it is not possible to get the Hardware Ids any other way.

So this will do, and it is activated too. Thank you. Thanks for this,. Burn the iso to a cd or use winsetupfromusb. Reviewer: operatingsystem - favorite favorite favorite favorite - February 12, Subject: Great but You should use the VL version rather than the OEM version as that does not require activation at all, hence it avoids any problems with activation one may have.

And I did try it with the Firewall turned off, no different. Just a side note - I was in Leicester spelling? Am working with a gentlemen from I believe the western part of the Isles, forget exactly where.

Small world! My, Windows is well named, I feel like I've been thru 1, of them, and probly couldn't find more than a dozen of them if I tried. Confusing to say the least, esp when I don't understand half of what they say to start with. Leicesters sucks, lol! Nottingham rulz m'kay? You say that your RJ network port shows lights, green and orange? That shows activity and that the card is alive at least. BUT, if you cannot find it in your device manager, you really do have issues. You should have at least 2 network adaptors in your device manager.

According to Asus' website its an Intel onboard network card. Look for network drivers and install them. It's either lost them somehow or you never actually installed them once you'd reformatted. Probably the latter in this case. So, do that and see what happens. Yessir, that does make sense. And I do remember seeing that it's an Intel network card. But - aHA! Will give that mess a spin and see - I didn't have any luck trying to select and install them before, probly just not finding the right command.

I'm connected on the desktop - at long last! Just wasn't giving it enuf time for the next window to open before, thought I wasn't doing something right and it wasn't responding. Well, thank you SO very much - an educational experience, to be sure, you helped me explore many murky corners of this Windows I'd been in at some point previously but n ever could have found without help, and surely learned some things in the process.

You'd probly be surprised, but i actually spec'd out and built this desktop myself about 3 years ago - when my old used PC wouldn't render home]video without dropping too many frames. Did a bunch of research, found out what was desirable nd what wasn't, found the individual components in various places - actually quite a bit of it on eBay - and away I went! The thing is, I just don't work with it enuf in that depth often enuf to remember everything I learn at any given time.

Anyway, thank you so very much!!
