Solved: Missing Disk for Mother board
Hi, i have been doing extensive looks on google for my mother board drivers for windows XP because i threw away my motherboard box that contained my drivers disk in it. I have actually gotten used to windows vista's handy auto-detection of ethernet but i reinstalled XP as a dual-boot for my computer because i still liked sertain features of it but wanted both. But since i lost my CD, i no longer have the drivers for my ethernet controller and XP doesnt automatically detect my ethernet.

My motherboard is the MSI MS-7345. If anyone has the disk or can find a download to fix this problem, it would be greatly appreciated

According to the manual for that motherboard, the network adapter is a Realtek 8111B.

You should be able to locate and download the XP driver from several sites.
