OK on that screenshot if you look on the left it shows Network
Can you click on that and then copy and paste what it says on the right side please.

[jan_jan64]

I have two icons, one called Windows Network and one called PCI/PnP Network.

[rshaffer61]

Copy and paste the info on the right for both please.

[jan_jan64]

Um, there isnt any information.. Please see the screenshots, im not sure if i am looking in the right place >_<

Ive attached the previous screen i described, after clicking on Windows Network and after clicking on PCI/Pnp Network, though i will have to put them in separate posts as the files are too big, and my netbook cant handle some simple copy and pasting into one single file >_>

Sorry for the trouble, i hope its the right info!

Try this one HERE

Ok - so, i was redirected here: http://www.realtek.c...3&GetDown=false

There were two files for XP so i downloaded both. I ran the one that had the driver installation, and after the setup was complete it said i was to restart and plug in the PCI card to complete the installation, though i have no idea what that is >_< I rebooted but it is still not working. the data in the other downloadable file is all contained in the first file, but i dont know what else i am supposed to do with them :/

[rshaffer61]

OK this is starting to sound more like a defective adapter. Based on the fact the driver is the right one and no error message came up stating no compatible adapter found. I would say the adapter may be the issue.
Is the network built onboard on the motherboard or is it a add on card?

[jan_jan64]

I dont really know enough about the internal workings of my pc to answer that im afraid :/ Can you tell me how i can tell and ill take a look?

In my previous home i was using a wireless adapter so im not sure if the ethernet port was working before my reformatting either..

Why are you not using this now or is there a different ISP you are using?

On the back of the system is the large network connection up near the speaker, usb and video connections or is it lowe in what looks like a slot?

[jan_jan64]

Its with the speaker and USB ports

I had to use a wireless connection in my last place because it was a large student house and my room was nowhere near the router so we all shared the wireless connection, but now i live in an apartment and the router is right next to my pc, theres only me and I no longer have the drivers and such for the wireless adapter as they werent mine to begin with :/

[rshaffer61]

OK lets look at the Device Manager again please. This time please expand the Network Adapter entry so I can see what it shows there.
I'm thinking it may be disabled in the bios and that is why we can't get it to install yet.
