Installing New Ethernet Card

The ethernet connection on my Digital Audio mother board is no longer functioning so I went out and bought a Linksys Ethernet PCI card but it still doent work (red dot in Network Preferences) or show up in System Profiler.
Will this solution work or do I need a new motherboard? Any suggestions?
Thank you ahead of time.
Clyde

Are you sure that it is seated in the connector. Try removing it & reinstalling it. You might even try a different PCI slot. Some times a new installed/connected item will show up in the Profiler, but may not work. But in your case the card is not being recognized. First you need to get it recognized.
Cheers, Tom

  • Problem with installing new line card 7600-SSC-400

    Hi all,
    I have a trouble when trying to install new line card 7600-SSC-400 on Cisco 6509. Here was the message displays on the screen after I finished installing the line card : "%C6KPWR-SP-4-UNSUPPORTED: unsupported module in slot 7, power not allowed: The image for the card is not bundled in image." I tried to install this line card on another slot, but it doesn't work. The attched item is logfile which I saved in the installing session. I don't know what I hvae to do now, please help me to resolve this problem !
    Thanks so much,
    Hieu

    Hi Hieu,
    You might want to run the following to see more detail of the error:
    show diagnostic result module all detail
    And I would also suggest that you reseat the 7600-SSC-400 line card firmly back to the switch, and check the status again.
    If it's still showing the error, maybe you can try seating the module on a different slot, and check if you have the same issue.
    If the issue still persist after reseating and testing it on different slot, then it might be a hardware issue, and you might want to open a TAC case to further investigate it.
    Hope that helps.

  • No Signal after installing new graphics card

    Hello and thanks in advance for your help!  
    We have a 2yr old HP p6540y.  It has an ATI integrated Video Card. When we recently turned it on, we got a 'no signal' message on the monitor and then it would go to sleep.  We have tried several things to fix...listed below, in order, and are still getting the same message.  Please advise!
    1) No Signal: DVI, VGA, HDMI.  So we unplugged and restarted, no change.
    2) Checked monitor and DVI & VGA cords with another computer: They all work.
    3) Installed new Graphics Card: NVIDIA GEForce GT 610.  Still got same 'no signal' message. 
    4) We plugged/unplugged all other cards/cords/anything we could and cleaned out.  Then, finally, the monitor turned on! But not for long....
    5) After restarting computer after installation of graphics card driver, we got the 'no signal' message again.  We once again, pulled out other cards/plugs and again the monitor/computer came to life.
    6) We unistalled the integrated ATI graphic card.  When we go to Display, Advanced Options, it lists our new NVIDIA as graphic/display card.
    7) We turned computer off overnight and this morning when we turned on, we once agin got the 'no signal' message.  We unplugged/plugged computer in several times.  Also tried the trick with pulling out cards/plugs and we got nothing.  No Signal.  After doing this several times (about 10), it finally worked again.  
    8) We changed sleep settings to: Screensaver=Never; Sleep Mode=Never.  
    9)  We restarted again to once again get no signal message.
    So...what do we need to do?
    Thanks so much!

    I suspect that your problem is caused by the power supply unit (PSU).  Here is a guide to help you troubleshoot the problem:

  • Installing new network card...how?

    The built in ethernet on my computer does not appear to be working. How do I get the Mac to see a new network card once i plug it into the board? Same for a sound card. I know that the built in sound is bad.
    I have extensive knowledge of these processes for a PC, but not at all for a Mac. A PC will automatically detect new hardware, but the Mac doesn't appear to see it.
    Thanks for any help.

    There aren't a lot of PCI Ethernet cards supported natively in OS X, and even then those that are usually still need a driver installed for them to function. D-Link is the only one I know off-hand that markets a 10/100 card billed as Mac-compatible. A Mac-compatible generic sound card will be even harder to track down.. the only ones I know of are very expensive ones aimed at digital audio production.

  • 3000 j115 A11 stopped working after installing new graphics card

    I thought i would be slick and install a new graphics card (asus GEForce 8500GT) after i put it in my 3000 j115 A11 everything stopped working. I can turn the tower on and it gives two beeps. Nothing displays on the monitor (it doesn't leave powersaving mode). It is also very quiet like it is not even trying to work. Did I just destroy my computer? Is there anything I can do?
    PS. I did take the asus card back out, so I'm not that lucky
    PSS. Got back to being able to boot but now I can't get back into bios to switch from PCI back to original built in card. If I try it just hangs after pressing enter to interupt normal setup

    I find this thread very interesting. I am assuming this system (3000 j115 A11) is the same as one I mentioned in a post from June 12 (7387A11... Graphics upgradeable?).... and is still hanging out there. Perhaps if Lenovo, or anybody else for that matter, could/would provide SPECIFIC upgrade instructions we could all be enlightened. (In my case I do not own a Lenovo computer but I am hoping to help my sister-in-law with her Lenovo and don't look forward to a major meltdown if the systems are not capable of this, otherwise, simple upgrade.)
    Niether of the 2 previous posters mentioned if they upgraded the PS in thier respective systems prior to the graphics card installation (although ala17 "recently" did.). One had issues and the other didn't. If that should be the first step toward the upgrade, it would be helpful to know beforehand.
    Thanks and good luck. Post back if you get to the bottom of it.

  • Installing RealTek ethernet card in solaris 7 sparc machine

    I inserted RealTek ethernet card in my Solaris-7 Sparc machine. But to work it properly ,need to install driver for the card. I searched a lot but i did't get the driver to download . I have read from some sites that the driver for solaris 7 sparc is not avaliable.How can i solve this problem.?
    Anybody please help me to solve the problem.

    You can try a NIC driver from RealTek, directly.
    http://www.realtek.com.tw/downloads/
    ... but for a SPARC system? That may be problematic.
    Does OBP see the device? Use show-devs at the OK prompt.
    If it isn't seen at OBP's elementary hardware level, the OS will never use it.
    If it is recognized at OBP, then try the manufacturer's drivers.

  • How to install new graphics card

    Hi everyone. I have an intel mac pro and i want to install my pci express ati xtx 1900 card into it. It fits in the slot nice and snug but requires the 6 pin power cable to run the card. I have no idea where this is inside the mac and need help getting my new graphics card to work. i know this card works on a mac so how to i do this. please, please someone help. thank you

    If you click on the "manuals" from the small strip above, then click on Desktop -> Mac Pro ->
    http://www.apple.com/support/manuals/macpro/
    There is a pdf. You should also have a small booklet that came with the Pro, and I am surprised the card doesn't come from Apple with a guide and photos.

  • How to install new graphic card?

    I would like to try to upgrade my graphic card (currently have a GeForce 7300) to run newer games on my pc, but have never opened the back of a computer before.  I was hoping someone might be able to help.  Is it as easy as just removing the old card and installing the new one?
    I was thinking of replacing it with a Geforce 9500 or 9600.  My computer has an AMD 6400 dual processor 2.80 ghz with 2 GBs of RAM so the new graphics card should fit, right? 
    Much thanks for any thoughts and advice.

    Yep just remove and replace. Just make sure its the correct type (AGP, PCI-e, etc) thats already in there.
     The instructions with the card are pretty simple.
    1. unplug computer and remove all cords.
    2. lay computer on table.
    3. unscrew case screws and slide cover (side cover or whole cover depending on make) off.
    4. lay computer on side so you can see the mother board.
    5. touch metal chassis before touching any component.
    6. unscrew screw that holds the part of the vid card at the back slots.
    7. unplug any cable to the vid card.
    8. theres a latch that needs to be unlocked before removing card. unlock it (usually slides to the front of the computer, dont force anything)
    9. pull vid card straight out.
    install new card in reversed order. Make sure you install the new cards software/drivers according to instructions.

  • Laptop freezes after installing new ram card.

    Hi,
    i recently upgraded my ram card on my toshiba c650d laptop. after installing the ram card the laptop began to freeze while in the desktop and then it could be resumed when Alt+Ctrl+Del was pressed.
    and the laptop wouldn't wake from the sleep mode....

    thanks for the help in advance

    Hello Malith Ratnayake,
    After changing the old RAM by the new one, this issue occurs?
    If the issue doesn’t occur when you change back to use old ram, I think it is the RAM hardware issue.
    Please contact the hardware manufacturer for better support.

  • MS-6714 trying to install new video card

    Well, I have done everything I can think of short of sledgehammering my computer into oblivion.  Just bought this comp it is a 2.8 celeron using the 6714.  Thought I could just stick a new video card in.  It recogzines the video card, but will not use it.  Even when I disable the on board through the device manager.  It just uses generic vga drivers.  Any clue how I can get this card to be used?

    Hi,
    Which 6714 are you using???
    Check link:
    http://www.msi.com.tw/program/search/ser/SerConProRes.php?keyword=6714&kind=1
    Also,
    1)have you disabled the ONBOARD graphics in the BIOS???
    2)which video card you trying to install and which version of drivers?
    3)what PSU do you have and model number?

  • INstalling new sound card on HP Pavilion a1029_uk

    Hi
    Due to the issues raised in my other thread
    http://h30434.www3.hp.com/t5/Desktop-PC-Sound-and-Audio/Suddenly-no-sound/td-p/607655
    I've gone and bought separate sound card (not from HP admittedly) but can't get it to install as the install software keeps crashing.
    Could it be that I've not totally got rid of the on board motherboard sound chips (that no longer work) are somehow interfering in the process.
    I've tried to do the install both with the and without disabling the on board audio in the BIOS settings (turning this off does seem to remove everything including Sound Manager, volume control etc) but it makes no difference.
    Do I need to leave this one but remove sound manager and the device drivers manually and if so, how do I do this as Sound Manager isn't included in the "Add / Remove Software" list.
    So the question is: Is it possible to totally remove all systems access to the on board sound set, so I can use a PCI sound card instead.
    Technical stuff.

    Trying to install Sweex SC002 5.1 PCI Sound Card
    http://www.sweex.com/en/assortiment/sound-vision/sound-cards/SC002/

    Just to let everyone know I've solved this one.
    It seems part of the new sound cards that hooks around the back of the PC to hold it in place is slightly too short, and/or the wrong shape, so when you put on the plate on my HP Pavillion that holds all the PCI cards in place, this pulls the soundcard slightly out of it's slot, up at the opposite end with the smaller pins so although the computer can detect there's a PCI card there, it can't tell what it is.
    If I leave this plate off, and allow the hook around part to hang free, the card works.

  • Installing new graphics card in hp p7-1155

    I have a new EVGA GEFORCE GT730 2GB GDDR5 graphics card and am ready to install it in the above box.
    Haggiscat suggested this board thru a previous post on this site. I have printed out the install directions from the hp help so I have the mechanics of how to install this thing. Those directions say to disable the on-board graphics card first, then go into the box and install the new card. My question is: Do I need to do anything else first such as downloading the driver first/delete the old driver first.etc? Also, I have a disc that came with the new card. Do I use that to get the drivers or go to the invidia website? I want this install to go as smoothly as possible so expert help would be appreciated.
    I'm not sure how to direct you to the previous post but it's in this section. Take a look for some background.
    Thanks
    This question was solved.
    View Solution.

    Hi,
    I suggest that your carefully read the instructions published by EVGA.   I have multiple EVGA graphics cards and none of the directions ever suggested to uninstall the old video drivers prior to installing the new graphics card.  Use the drinver disk that comes with the graphics card after your boot up. The default Windows drivers will work and then you can install the EVGA supplied drivers.  EVGA also has a web site that you can obtain later drivers that have been tested by EVGA for your graphics card.
    The modern HP motherboards will automatically switch to the discrete graphics card if detected and if it is compatible with the BIOS and motherboard.
    The NVIDIA 7xx series graphic cards have been problematic with HP motherboards using a version 7 BIOS.  some may work and some may not work.
    The reality is that there is no a guarantee that any particular graphics card will work in any particular PC even if the graphics card works in other PCs or even the same or similar model PCs. Know what the return policy is before you buy.

  • Help with installing new graphics card

    Hi I have a 3 year old hpe575a (hp pavillion)
    Intel i7 2600, 8gb ram
    Orginally had a ati hd radeon  2gb (not sure what model)
    in it
    after 2 years the radeon finally melted ( always had overheating problems in the australian summer )
    so I bought a nvidia gtx630m which had the same connections and power requirements and connections as the radeon 
    I csnt seem to get it working, despite the card powering up, and loading the splash screen it doesnt go any further, I can get to the network boot screen or the hp splash screen but no further, and I cant find any bios updates for my mptherboard (pegatron) so do I need a new motherboard? The computer works 100% fine without the new graphics card 
    Should I get a new motherboard. Or graphics card? which would be cheaper? or is there someway to get the current system to work with the new graphics card? thanks -zac 

    Hi,
    The existing card is an "AMD Radeon HD6570 (2 GB)". I don't know how you can fit a Nvidia GTX630M to your machine because this card is for laptop:
         http://www.geforce.com/hardware/notebook-gpus/geforce-gt-630m/specifications
    Probably you are talking about the following card:
        http://www.geforce.com/hardware/desktop-gpus/geforce-gt-630/specifications
    The card should be able to use 300W PSU on your machine (no need new PSU). My suggestion:
    (a) Update BIOS to the latest one, please check, should be "Version7.15 Rev. A" the motherboard is Cleveland

  • Instaling second ethernet card / sharing internet connection

    Hiya.
    Is it possible to share my cable broadband service ( PS3 etc ) through my PPC G4, maybe by installing a second ethernet pci card and sharing the internal ethernet, or is there any other possibilities. no airport, but do have a D-link bluetooth dongle...

    As other posters have pointed out, you don't need a second ethernet card to share out your connection - if you have an existing router (with a number of ethernet connections), you can connect your game consoles to that, and your ISP will be none the wiser. Your ISP will still give you one IP address; your router does the translation into multiple private IP addresses (eg 10.0.1.1, 10.0.1.2, etc)
    Another option is to buy an inexpensive network switch, put that between the router and the Mac, connect the other devices to the switch, and turn on sharing from ethernet to ethernet. But you really don't need to with a router on the network.
    If you share out your Mac's internet connection, the devices behind the connection will get IP addresses in the range 192.168.2.x (the Mac will effectively be their router/DHCP server at 192.168.2.1).
