    I have problems connecting to network on my computer when using windows 7.

    Computer is  with motherboard K8N Neo Platinium (K8N Neo series MS-7030(v1.X) ATX Mainboard) with AMD Athlon
    (tm)64 proceccor 3400+ 2,4 Ghz.
    And nVIDIA nforce3 250GB lan controller integrated fast Ethernet MAC and PHY in one chip.


    The problem is that windows 7 tells me that no networkcard is found.


    I have updated all drivers for Mainboard and Network, still no connection.


    Anyone that has a solution for my problem.

    I also have windows7 on a newer computer and there every thing is ok

    Windows 7 is installed on a second drive so I  can choose to start Wista or Windows 7.

    Hello Bertil,

    Please verify that you have the correct drivers for your Network Adapters.  In addition, please verify that you are on a hardwired connection versus wireless.  Once this information has been resolved.  Simply run (ipconfig /all)  Please verify you network information.  You can paste that information in here if you like.  IP Address should be 192.168.x.x.  Are you successfully capable of connecting to the internet?  In addition, attempt to ping you router to verify connection.  Also, if you enter into Network and Sharing Center and ensure that "Network Discovery"  is turned on.  Please follow up with me at your earliest convenience.

    Thank you,
