| 847661 | 2010-01-10 18:41:00 | Hi guys. I have a Compaq s3100an. When I reinstalled my XP Home, a while back, I could get the ethernet to work :badpc: for my broadband.:mad: I installed a PCI card and that worked, but I would like to get the "on board" ethernet to work. I have tried, many times, to ask Windows to find it but it can't. I have tried the Compaq site, to no avail. :help: Any advise greatly appreciated, Ian |

(Amazing, a decent one). So try the LAN driver (or chipset driver) off ASUS site - for that motherboard. |

| 847665 | 2010-01-10 23:41:00 | Go here (h20000.www2.hp.com) - locate the model, but select the S3100AP ( even though yours is the AN) download the XP network driver. All the 3100 series from memory use the same driver. | wainuitech (129) | ||

The boards they make for companies like Compaq are custom built and are not retail boards and are not listed. The board uses nForce2 chipset, so www.nvidia.com should work. |

| 847667 | 2010-01-11 00:23:00 | Well, no . The PC I fixed was HP or Dell or something . It had a P5P2L-E ASUS mobo in it . I went to the ASUS site, downloaded all the drivers and the BIOS . Flashed it a few weeks ago (because the one that was on it was screwed / buggy / corrupt) . Its been fine since |

| 847669 | 2010-01-11 01:36:00 | Crap. It's an A7N8X-LA motherboard. Common as dirt. Well I did not take the time to check that specific board but it's not crap, I've seen it before. I've got an HP here with an Asus TX98-XV in it, have fun finding THAT on the Asus website (and please, be my guest, have a look and if you find it, let me know) |
