Hi all

I need a driver to get on the Internet but didn't get one with the ntl installation disk.
This is not for me as I'm fixing well trying to fix this computer for a friend problem being there isn't 1 on the ntl disk.
The modem my mate is using is the standard ntl 250 modem through the blue the blue Ethernet cable.
Can anyone tell me what driver i need so i can Get this computer on the net please?
It's Windows xp pro btw.

Thanks

You don't need a modem driver to get online if you are using the Ethernet cable, though you may need a driver for the ethernet card.

Unfortunately without knowing what ethernet card (if plugin) or what motherboard you are using it's hard to point you in the right direction.

Hi thanks for replying

I copyied everest home edition from my comp put it on a disk and installed it on the other computer and heres what it says she has.
The motherboard is a fujitsu seimens d1534 motherboard and the card for the internet is a
Intel 82544xt pro/1000 mt desktop adapter.
I've already looked on the net for a driver to try and get her back online without any luck.
Is there any chance at all someone could find me the drivers or give us some good links please?

Thanks

Is it a branded PC and is it a seperate LAN card or built in chipset?
Could try the Intel site for this

Try this one - it's from Dell but I think it's the same network interface card.

Well if you told us the answer to wether it is a branded PC etc then we could actually tell you which driver is the best bet

And actually, this should be in the "Networking" section.

Problem being now theres no install for the lan drivers??
Only an uninstall exe file?
How on earth do i install these drivers?
The sound driver installed fine but i couldn't get the lan driver installed
