Hello everyone,
I need your valuable help!
I've formatted my HD and upgraded to WinXP Pro (from Win XP Home Edition). After finishing SETUP, my Network Connections lists only "1394 Connection". There is no "Local Area Connection". And I have no internet.
Device Manager only lists "1394 Net Adapter" under Network Adapters. And under Other Devices, I see "Ethernet Controller" with a ! mark indicating that "the drivers for this device are not installed". I attempted to install drivers for the "Ethernet Controller" but I need Internet connection for this!
Please help me fix this problem. I've read that "1394 Connection" should not be under Network Connections. Yet, I can't get rid of it. I tried removing it but it keeps coming back.
Here's some specs:
Athlon 2100+
80GB HD
Win XP Pro
Firewire (I do want to use firewire on this machine)
Computer connects to router to share internet connection with main computer which is connected via Cable Modem.
etc
I will GREATLY appreciate any advice you may offer.
Thanks in advance,
Jess
