Ok seriously, it's not funny anymore
So I get a new computer. It's a 700mhz "e-machine 
and it has XP professional on it. First problem, the god damn ethernet plug is there, but doesn't do a god damn thing. It lights up, but when I connect it, it doesn't do anything and the network still says it's unplugged. I get this error when I first start the computer that says:
WARNING
ERROR
Resource Conflict- PCI Network controller in slot 3
Bus:01, Device:0B, Function:00
Ok, slot 3 is where the netgear ethernet plug is. Why is there an error there? Should it not be in slot 3?
I also have tried to use every god damn linksys driver that is available to the public and it will not ------- work with this other computer. Is it because it's XP pro? I have it working flawlessly on my computer with XP so what's the problem? I've tried to use the same god damn drivers I installed on my computer, but it will not ------- work.
Any help?

Uninstall the driver for the ethernet card and reinstall it, see what happens.

I'm scared to uninstall. Will I be able to install afterwards without going on the internet?

something is using the same resource as the nic card, any other cards in the computer?

Re: Ok seriously, it's not funny anymore
Boost dont uninstall anything yet. just try moving the card to another slot and see if that works. the error is saying that the resoucer that slot 3 has assigned to it are in use by some other component. so by moving th slot you will be using diff resources than slot 3 and it should work. i have had similar problems and almost always this fixed it for me.
