Hello everyone! I'm back again and need help as always...
I just reformated and installed Windows XP on one of my computers. I went online on a different computer and got the LAN drivers among other drivers. I then installed them on this other computer. I then plugged it into the network and tried to see what happened. I signed it up so that it would be part of my workgroup, and nothing helped. No matter what I have done, there is no internet on that computer and it cannot see any other computer. What is weird is that the ethernet lights in the back, both green and orange, keep flashing every two seconds. Even when the computer is off they still keep going! I find this to be a sign of something, but I have no idea what. Anyone have any ideas to help? Please! I have a LAN Party tonight and this is something that must be fixed by then! Thanks for your responses and patience. -Mike |

Your sure you got the exact drivers for the ethernet card and are your sure the card still works and hasn't shit out on you? I reccomend trying to swap in a new card and try that if the new card works, you know your previous card was shit.
