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..

It just has a netgear ethernet card that I'm sure they plugged in right before they gave it to me without checking it out. How would I get the correct drivers from the website....if I can't get on the internet? :P 'm just going to take it back and tell the ****** to fix it. It's their problem.

I don't see any devices that could be conflicting with it.

The computer geek is trying to say I fucked it up and changed ---- around. He's about to get an e-machine shoved up his ***. If the stupid **** sucker would have tested the god damn thing before he gave it to me we wouldn't have this problem. It's obvious he didn't test it because the ethernet hardware wasn't installed until I turned it on and let it detect it.

Hey wow, looky there. I'm on the internet with the e-machine on both an ethernet connection and a wireless connection. The ethernet worked as soon as I plugged it in and the wireless adapter installed instantly when I plugged it in. Imagine that.

Problem solved. I hate computers.

Yes, my GF took it back to the computer geek we got it from and he put a different card in and was telling her I changed and fucked up all kinds of ----. I was about ready to go down there and strangle a *****. It's funny that he blamed me for this and that, but it had errors to begin with and why did he change the ethernet card to another one? Oh let me guess, I fucked that up too? Oh well, it works now and I don't have to ---- with it anymore.
