Yes, it is trying to install drivers for that NIC, that's what is freaking me out, it's like it sees it, but when it comes time to install drivers for that, or ANY NIC, it says there is an error and won't carry thru the installation.
I already made the checklist too. sound card rocks, as usual........... video card is fine. Everything on it seems ok. I uninstalled almost every piece of software in case there was a conflict there. Restored it back to a week ago, to be on the safe side. When I did this, it says it found new hardware and was again trying to install that onboard NIC.
Pete, it is a 3 yr old system, no warranty, I am afraid to even look at the cost of repairing this puppy, I'd be better tossing it out the window and buying a new one when I save my pennies. LOL
The fucked up part is that this is my oldest system...... but my favorite and my workdog. LOL
