Hi all,

All help greatly appreciated.

I am using an ASUS T3 (series) barebone with 2gb ram and a 4600+ am2 processor, with a 22inch hanns g monitor via VGA, with onboard graphics (Nvisdia 6150 chip) and onboard NIC (nvidia)

I used to use linux on here and everything worked fine, the NIC worked perfectly, and the screen displayed to top resolution 1600 x 1200
Then my wife said she needed a pc with windows XP on so I reformatted the HD on this one with XP and thats when my problems started.

I am unable to use the built in NIC, it give me a red light but always gives itself an APIPA, I have since put in a new NIC and this works fine, but TBH I want to use the onboard one.

I also have installed the ASUS drivers via the disc and site, and the Nvidia onboard graphics won't work to its full affect, it basically maskes the screen go blank when loading up and then I have to restart the machine.

Sorry if I have put this in the wrong place, please move as neccessary.


Kind regards,

James

I've moved you over to the XP forum, this is really more driver installation issues.
