I am done with helping people for free this month, I have two laptop torn down to the motherboard because jackasses like to hit the power cord really hard when its plugged into the laptop ,causing it to break the power connector off the circuit board.

This piece of ---- is going back and if I get any sort of bullshit story it's going to be a very bad day for the computer geeks that sold it to me.

You've got a resource conflict with two or more devices. You will have to go to the control panel, system, device manager, and then find the device that is conflicting with your network card. Disable that device or assign it a new IRQ (interrupt request value). That should take care of the problem.

Re: Ok seriously, it's not funny anymore
E-machines are serious junk... if you live near me i have a extra 1.3Ghz board and chip you could have for free w/ 512k ram and ATI video card 
if it is an on board ethernet adapter then you should be using that, use the correct drivers for it from the manufactures website.. letting xp decide what to use is not going to help you any. if you have a add on ethernet card disable the on board from the bios (basic input output settings, press del or f2 on startup). if all else fails craigslist always has pretty good deals..
