I found an ethernet PCI card. I dunno what brand it is, so I dunno what drivers to get.

Anyone know a way to fix this?

I've never dealt with this before, but wouldn't Windows XP automatically detect it? :weird:
Just an idea.

Can't hurt to try, even if it doesn't work. But if it doesn't work, then just try different drivers from every ethernet card you've ever had. It has to be one of them. If you don't know who made the ones you've had... then I don't know how you'd do this. :weird:
I'll let you know if I find something out. If I don't find any information, then maybe someone else will know something.

UPDATE: I know two programs you can try that may be able to recognize the card.
