Windows Forum / Windows 98 / Networking / February 2006PCI Ethernet card driver needed
I just installed windows 98 on a machine that had windows me. (used a new hard drive) I can't get on the internet, and the icon in device mgr. is yellow. It can't find the driver on the windows installation disk. It is a Compaq 10/100 pci card. I need to find a place where I can download the driver from another computer, put it on a cd and transfer it to the 98 SE machine. I looked on Compaq's website with no luck Any help would be appreciated. Philip You can't get a part number off that card?  SignatureGary S.

Or go here (10/100 MPX EN5038A): http://www.network-drivers.com/drivers/29/29584.htm Here is a photo of an EN1207D-TX NIC: http://i15.ebayimg.com/04/i/06/1b/6f/e6_1_b.JPG Does it match yours? - Franc Zabkar SignaturePlease remove one 'i' from my address when replying by email. I was unable to get the downloaded drivers to work, perhaps because this was a ME machine I changed to Windows 98se. I found it easier to purchase a new ethernet card with a driver cd for $22.00. thanks for all the replies Philip. > >On Sun, 19 Feb 2006 20:34:18 -0800, Philip > ><Philip@discussions.microsoft.com> put finger to keyboard and [quoted text clipped - 26 lines] > > - Franc Zabkar > I just installed windows 98 on a machine that had windows me.

Replace it. SignatureThe e-mail address in our reply-to line is reversed in an attempt to minimize spam. Our true address is of the form che...@prodigy.net. I agree, however there's this. http://www.network-drivers.com/drivers/76/76291.htm SignatureGary S. Terhune MS MVP Shell/User > > I just installed windows 98 on a machine that had windows me.

The easiest way is to take out the card and record the part numbers of the biggest chips. Otherwise you can try interrogating the software, as follows: How to use Registry Editor to identify an unknown PCI device: http://support.microsoft.com/kb/298837/en-us PCI Vendor and Device Lists: http://www.pcidatabase.com/ You can also retrieve PCI device info (eg vendor and device IDs) using PCItree: http://www.pcitree.de/ Alternatively, try running msinfo32.exe. - Franc Zabkar SignaturePlease remove one 'i' from my address when replying by email. >I just installed windows 98 on a machine that had windows me.
