| 548381 | 2007-05-08 17:29:00 | Hi, Yesterday i downgraded my gateway notebook from Windows vista, to Windows Xp. The notebook has a built-in network adapter but my device manager doesn't have a entry for it. I need help in figuring out what to do, i checked my BIOS menu and everything is "enabled". Im thinking since the notebook came with no install cd's for my built-in adapter, the software must have came with it, and now is gone since i downgraded. Any help would be great. -David thanks. |
