T42 Ethernet and Network controller problems

I am fairly new to computers and obtained a T42 for my grandson. Please bear with me as I am rather Techno challenged and battled now for 2 days getting internet connection. Had to do a clean XP SP2 installation and landed up with a host of Other devices issues with Yellow Question marks. Have downloaded most drivers from http://support.lenovo.com/en_US/downloads with various success. Need serious help here please.
In Device manager I am sitting with two unresolved issues under Other Devices
Ethernet Controller PCI\VEN_14E4&DEV_167D&SUBSYS_05771014&REV11\4&111A1FD8&0&00E0
AND
Network Controller PCI\VEN_8086&DEV_4224&SUSYS_1011808&REV_05\4&AD1B67F&0&10F0
I have downloaded various drivers but still cannot get them to work. Not sure which of the drivers to use.
In another forum somebody replied
The Intel PRO/1000 is an ethernet controller. Once you get that installed and establish a network connection, you can download and install MS dotnetfx and Lenovo System Update which will download and install all the other drivers automatically. Or just download them yourself and manually install them.
Not very helpful as I could not figure ou thow to install as the drivers that I downloaded did not fix this and no further help from them when I questioned this
Please if someone here will give us some step by step directions. The model is 2373-L77 if that will help
Solved!

Checked the "DEV_" # on www.pcidatabase.com
upper: Broadcom NetXtreme Gigabit Ethernet driver (it seems, you have a T43-System Board in your T42 or you have a T43).
lower: 802.11a/b/g WLan adapter driver (Intel 2915 Wireless LAN adapter)
Please find the installation instructions on the linked pages. Executing the downloaded packages extracts them only to C:\DRIVERS\WIN\xxx.
Starting there you'll need to execute the setup as described on the download page.

Replaced hard drive need ethernet and network controller

Hello
I replaced the hard drive on my satellite L655. I installed windows and used my existing key code. The laptop is telling me I have no ethernet and network controller. I have tried to find the correct drivers. Since I am starting the computer from scratch do I need to install other drivers as well? Please help.
Thanks
Heidi
Solved!
Go to Solution.

I'm so sorry, Heidi. I misread your first message. I thought you had restored the hard disk to its original out-of-the-box contents using Toshiba recovery media.
That's the best thing to do. All the drivers and utilities are properly preinstalled. Windows is preactivated.
If you failed to burn recovery discs, you can obtain them from Toshiba. Scroll down to Get Recovery Media here .
For instructions, see the section Restoring from recovery DVDs/media, which begins on p. 71 of the User's Guide.

If you have problems with drivers after doing that, see my previous message.

SM bus and network controller problem

Hi,
I have the above notepad but I cannot connect to the Internet.
In the device manager it shows yellow triangles with a "!" for :
- network controller
- SM Bus Controller
Where can I find the drivers for them?
I tried to put several drivers.
But most of the time a message came saying : "this computer does no meet the minimum requirements for installing the software"
Can anyone help ?
Thanks in advance.

T41 has Network Controller problem

I was given a T41 2373-7JU that I loaded with XP Pro. My problem is it will not connect to the internet via it's browser. In Device Manager it shows a Network Controller problem and I've been unable to correct this no matter how many different drivers I've tried. Also, how do I tell if there's an internal wireless card inside? It did connect to the internet earlier today using my USB adaptor but now I can't even do that anymore. I've tried a dozen or so solutions without any success so where should I go from here?

Hi and welcome to the forum!
Following are the drivers you need for Ethernet and wifi card (and yes, as per support page there's an internal card installed in your system):-
http://www-307.ibm.com/pc/support/site.wss/document.do?lndocid=MIGR-62922
http://www-307.ibm.com/pc/support/site.wss/document.do?lndocid=MIGR-42683
To install the drivers successfully, you need to run the .exe setups from C:\Drivers.... for each device after the first setup completes.
For ethernet, the setup is in C:\DRIVERS\Win\ETHERNET\PRO1000\Win32 and for wifi C:\DRIVERS\WLLANCSC.
Hope this helps.

Here is what I have done...I have zipped up and attached below under Attachments, the raw smbus controller driver files for you to unzip and manually install.
Download and unzip the file.
Go to the device manager and click on the smbus controller needing drivers. Click on the driver tab. Click on Update Driver.
Select the Browse my computer for driver software option and browse to the driver folder that you unzipped.
Make sure the Include Subfolders box is checked and the driver should install. Then reboot.

PCI Device and Network Controller uninstalled

Having problems with downloading a pci device and network controller driver for presario cq57? Need help. my hardware id is PCI\VEN_10EC&DEV_5209&SUBSYS_3577103C&REV_01

Hi:
You need to install the Realtek Card Reader driver from your notebook's support and driver page for the PCI device.
Please do the following so I can find out what model wireless card your model uses...
Go to the device manager, find the Other Devices category, and click on the Network Controller needing drivers.
Then click on the Details tab at the top of the network controller window.
Now you see a Property drop down list and it is defaulted to Device Description.
Drop down on that and select the second item on the list (Hardware ID's).
Post the top string of characters that begin with PCI\VEN.

Missing Ethernet, PCI, and Network Controller Drivers

I recently reinstalled Windows on my fiance's laptop, and now it wont connect to wi/fi. The device manager is showing that there is no drivers for the Ethernet controller, PCI Device, or Network controller. How do I fix this? Thanks!

NVIDIA nForce Networking Controller problem

Hi, I am a new user of Solaris and Linux and I am having a problem with my internet connection under solaris.... i was reading other messages in the forum and apparently solaris doesn't detect my network adapter because when i run ifconfig -a it only shows lo0....
I went to nvidia.com but the drivers on their website are only for the graphics card... where can i get the requiered drivers (and how do i install them under solaris) for my internet connection to work???
i have a NVIDIA nForce Networking Controller and connect to the internet using road runner trough a router...
thanks...

Hi, I am a new user of Solaris and Linux and and I am having a problem with my internet connection under solaris...<snip>
Javisam376
Hi,
Same problem here Javisam376, but I am on an AMD x64 platform, and wondered if that might be the reason why the Solaris Express Developer Edition was unable to see the NVIDIA nForce Networking Controller, so I wonder which platform you're on (32 or 64-bits?) A general Google search for "Solaris NVIDIA nForce Networking problem" gave a fair number of hits, so the problem, seems well known, but no solutions were suggested by anybody, as far as I could see(!?)
But it seems the Linux community has the same problem, since I found this posting on LinuxQuestions.org (http://www.linuxquestions.org/questions/showthread.php?t=471094):
"I just finished installing Red Hat 9 on my machine, which is running off of an AMD/NVIDIA nForce2 chipset mobo that has integrated ethernet. I was trying to set up my network connection, but was unable to locate the nvida ethernet controller in the Network app/Network Configuration Wizard. So I went on to nvidia's site and downloaded the x86 linux driver (using my other machine) and used a cd to pop it into the other comp... Saved it to the desktop,
then terminaled: sh NFORCE-Linux-x86-1.0-0310-pkg1.run.
It took me through a setup screen where I 'installed a audio and ethernet driver'. I checked the Network wiz again, still no entry for it. So I randomly clicked the hardware browser, and IT lists the 'nForce2 Ethernet Controller' under network devices, but I can't configure it from this screen. Anyway, I would seriously appreciate any help with this. I need to get internet access on this machine quick, so this is drivin' me crazy."

Probems with msi 875p neo Fis2r and network controller driver

Hi guys just wondering if anyone could help me with my msi 875p neo FIS2R and problems with the network controller driver/network card.
I'm running xp on a computer my nextdoor neighbour gave me. I got it working fine with service pack 3 installed but then installed a bunch of windows updates last night and the computer would switch itself off before windows could start. Now I reinstalled xp and unfortunately it does not recognise the network controller/card at all now. I tried installing the intel network controller drivers but it stopped because it said no intel adapter/card was installed/present. Could anyone please help with suggestions? I tried running everest and under newtwork it doesnt list intel network adapters but I'm pretty certain it is. Again any suggestions?

Clear CMOS with your PSU unplugged from A/C power. Then load "Optimized Defaults" in BIOS and retest.
thanks jimi... jack
will try that and post later if it worked... ive never cleared cmos, this sort of thing is relatively new to me but thanks again

Yellow mark - PCI Device" and "Network controller" on Satellite A100-787

There is a yellow mark in the device manager for a driver called "PCI Device" and also for "Network controller" although the network connection (LAN) is working well and all other functions of the computer seem to be working well.
What are those devices??

Regarding the LAN driver, it is installed and working properly (the wired one). The wireless driver is provided by Atheros which I installed from its own setup file and it didnt give me any error so I assume it is installed well although I havent tested the wireless connection yet. I am going to do that shortly.
As for the PCI device, the card reader is able to read Sony memory stick and one type of SD card with certain teeth arrangement but not another card with a different teeth type. I dont know why it is the case. so this remains a mistery to me.

945 PL Audio and Network intermittent problems...

Hello,
Hopefully someone can help me here. I recently built a comp for a friend with a 945PL Mobo and a dual-core 2.66 Ghz processor. Everything is fine, except that the audio sometimes works, and sometimes doesn't. This includes when I disable the onboard audio and switch to a 3rd party card. Also, I have hooked the comp up to my network in order to update windows, and everything worked fine, except for the fact that with each restart, I had to unplug the network cable and plug it back in.
I have reinstalled both the audio drivers and the drivers for the network card, as well as disabling/uninstalling the components and then reinstalling them.
Currently, the audio is working again(had ONE instance where it wasn't working, and I went to log out, and it started working again...). Usually, it will work for a minute or two, and then stop, with NO errors.
Unfortunately, the network card just keeps trying to establish a connection, so I can't get the comp online to update anything.
I have also tried flashing the BIOS, except that I can't get it to work for some reason. I followed the instructions provided here, but the BIOS utility doesn't seem to want to run. Maybe I'm missing something.
If anyone has ANY idea what might be going on, it would be GREATLY appreciated!!
This is driving me nuts, and also making me look like a moron to the friend I built the computer for.
Thanks!!
Mike Wells

"What's your full system build? Please list out."
Sorry for the slow reply, I've been seriously busy...
System:
945 PL Mobo
2.66 Ghz Dual Core P4 Processor
1 Gb Crucial DRAM
Radeon X550 PCI Express Video Card with 256 Mb RAM
Maxtor 250 Gb SATA HDD
Sony DVD-ROM
Pioneer DVD Burner
Cooler Master Case
Thermaltake Typhoon cooler
Audio and Ethernet are both built in.
I have updated the audio, the ethernet and the INTEL drivers, still no luck. The network card continues to try and get on the network(Funny thing, I can access my router, but even if I hook straight up to the cable modem, it never accquires an address.). The audio worked MOST of the weekend, but it still stopped working on two occasions. I left in on for hours at a time, I restarted a million times, I even played full CD's to see if there was any pattern to the audio issue, nothing seemed to show up, except that it doesn't go out while playing something...
Hope this helps.
Does anyone think that this could be a Windows issue, even though putting in another souond card didn't help? I haven't installed so much software at this point that a re-install would be too much of a pain in the butt...
Once again, thanks for helping.

Remote access and network services problem

I have a Mac Pro with two IP configs:
Ethernet 1: 69.##.##.## /255.255.255.248 [hidden for public forum security]
Ethernet 2: 10.0.0.20/255.255.255.0
My primary needs:
Able to remotely access the Mac via Remote Desktop using the public IP. Local LAN connectivity using 10.##.##.##.
Setup:
I have a 10 public IP address from my ISP and using one of the 10 now. Everything pings OK.
Question:
How can I customize the network service so that I can select the Ethernet 1 or Ethernet 2 port to use? So far it forces me select Ethernet 1 for all of the services selected. I'd like to use FTP & Web Server & Remote Access on the Ethernet 2 (public). The rest is LAN. I notice that Appletalk is only allowable on a single IP.
Quick experiment with the Internet sharing using Ethernet 2 (public) to Ethernet 1 failed to provide the desired forwarding result.
Mac Pro Mac OS X (10.4.9)

I think you need to go further into the settings and define FTP etc. to the specific Ethernet. There are also settings Automatic and where you define your connection. I have a 3 inch book that I will look at to see if they address it. I to plan to do something similar, but haven't got there yet.

New logic board and network connection problems

My late 2007 MBP just had a new logic board installed. I have home and work wireless networks that are configured to connect automatically. This always worked flawlessly in the past. My MBP would find the network, connect and all was well. Since I've had the new logic board I'm having issues. The wireless network will be detected but an IP address is not assigned so I can't get on the network or internet. Both my home and work networks were set to assign a specific IP address to my computer. The MAC address detected by the router is correct, at least according to System Preferences.
The only way I can connect is to disable the firewall (Allow all incoming connections). When I do this I connect immediately to the network and everything works as normal. I can even turn the firewall back on and everything will be fine, that is until I leave work and turn the computer on at home. Then I have to go through this again. And then again when I go to work in the morning. I've tried deleting my router profile and resetting from scratch, deleting the network profiles in System Preferences and re-detecting. I don't know what else to try. It's an annoying problem.
Any suggestions?
Thanks.
Kevin

I think I have it fixed. One of the solutions I read about had to do with the 10.5.7 upgrade. I have always installed the smaller upgrades, not the larger "combo" upgrades. One tip suggested installing the full combo upgrade because, among other things, it re-creates two specific files that control how the computer interacts with the network. I installed the combo upgrade last Friday and connected without difficulty to the network at my office this morning. If I connect just as easily when I get home tonight I will consider the problem solved.
Cheers!
Kevin
