After having the recurring "windows explorer has stopped working" error and having found no solution I decided to reinstall from scratch using a cable to back up the hard-drives via USB to a second computer. Having now reinstalled XP fresh with all the files
copied back over I am having the problem described in the title. I cannot find the manufacturer of the controller as the device manager gives absolutely no information (all fields are marked 'unknown'). We do not have a CD with any drivers on to install from
although the start-up screen had GeForce 7050m-m followed by the date so I installed those drivers (http://www.ecs.com.tw/ECSWebSite/Downloads/Downloads_Driver_Detail.aspx?MenuID=61&LanID=0&detailid=865) which
work for everything except the ethernet controller.
Is there a way of finding out what make/model the controller is?
Thank you.
