    I just recently reformatted my computer for various reasons... mainly because who I got the computer from had put on a ripped verison of XP pro and I had no key and and the windows validation stuff was getting QUITE annoying. But I have a legit XP home edition that I wanted to put on instead.

    This isn't the first time i've done a reformat, but I need help this time lol. After everything was all done and looked all great I try to go online and nothing..... so I poke around the computer and check out the device manager, and I think it was there that it said "no ethernet detected". And.. I don't know why! I haven't come across this problem before, and it was all working before I did the reformat.

    If anyone knows what the problems is... or has any suggestions as to what it could be, it would be greatly appreciated! :eek:)

    You need the drivers for your mother board. Do you still have the driver cd that came with your mother board? if not then I would go to to manufactures web site and grab them.
