A7V600 Network Controller problem
Under WinXP, In device manager under 'other devices' I have listed a
'Network Controller' with a yellow question mark beside it. My onboard network adapter is lested under network adapters and works fine. Any ideas what the extra 'Network Adapter' is? |

Doesnt the A7V600 comes with a LAN 3Com 3C940 1000 Mbps Ethernet
controller Unless you are connecting up PCs in a LAN then ignore it. You can disable it in the BIOS too if you need/want to.

Only other thing I have listed under Network Adapters in WinXP Pro is "1394 Net Adapter" which is the Firewire on my Audigy 2 card. Sorry can't be of more help, Ed You can network two computers with Firewire. They need a proper GUID in the BIOS to work, and sometimes the GUID gets fried when the BIOS is flashed. I have no idea if that is your problem or not. For more trivia on GUID, try a search he http://www.nforcershq.com/forum/search.php http://www.nforcershq.com/forum/view...highlight=guid HTH, Paul |

Could that be the device you're seeing? Are the drivers for the WiFi slot installed? Just a guess, since there don't seem to be any other devices that would be seen as a network controller. |

Thanks everyone for the fast responses, but as is always the way within a couple of hours of posting the question I have found the answer - it's one of the USB settings in the BIOS that causes it. Advanced Menu - I/O Device Configuration - USB Device Mode. Set it to Disabled and the extra 'Network Controller' is gone. No idea why, but its fixed. |
