I have an abit av8 motherboard
and I’m trying to use windows 7 64bit on it but i keep getting a message saying something along the lines of reset local area connection.
and ip address not configured correctly
i’ve reset the dsl modem.
i’ve reset the router.
i’ve connected directly too the dsl modem
i’ve ran the trouble shooter of course.
the internet works fine when i have windows xp professional on it as well as ubuntu.
this thing has me pulling what little hair i have out……..
i’ve tried updating the drivers for the card but still no luck. (not to mention there isn’t a yellow flag next to the network card (which is an on board one) under device management.
it’s a
2.0Ghz 3800+ 64 x2 processor
160gb hard drive
4gb of memory
128mb video card from pny (yah i know it’s not to great. not to mention it’s AGP)
so maybe i’m downloading the wrong driver? or maybe i need to enable or disable something in the network connection properties? I really don’t know anymore. so any help would be appreciated.
Thanks
@john c. yes i did (where i said i ran the troubleshooter)
Did you try running the Internet Connection Wizard?
