Ethernet Controller Driver - Other Devices

You should go here: http://support.dell.com/support/downloads/index.aspx?c=us&cs=19&l=en&s=dhs&~ck=anavml

Enter your service code or select your system type and download the network drivers.  I'd also advise to update all drivers while your there.  Your system will thank you for keeping it's drivers up to date.

Thanks, but I've already been thru that list, to no avail. It doesn't list an Ethernet Controller, just Wireless.

What model of Dell desktop do you have?  For the Other Device, right-click on it, and go to Details tab, choose Hardware Ids from the dropdown and report back.

Download and run to extract the files to C:\Dell\Drivers\R67150.  Browse to this folder and run WinXP\setup.exe.

If it is a Dimension 4600, then you would have an Intel Pro 100 Ethernet NIC on the motherboard.  The PCI device you listed matches - Intel Pro 100.  If you go to the Drivers and Downloads page for the Dimension 4600 and go to Network, there is an Intel 10/100 LOM (LAN On Motherboard).  It is here:

I believe it is a Dimension 4600. And the details read as the following:

PCI\VEN_8086&DEV_1050&SUBSYS_01741028&REV_02 

PCI\VEN_8086&DEV_1050&SUBSYS_01741028

PCI\VEN_8086&DEV_1050&CC_020000

PCI\VEN_8086&DEV_1050&CC_020000

Intel 10/100 LOM are the ethernet drivers under networking

Theflash, I could just kiss you! That worked!!

Good ... I'm glad!

Hi TAdriani,

Please share the exact system model and operating system installed. Also, share the screenshot of the Device Manager with the Network Adapters and Other Devices expanded. Here are the steps:

• Press the key combination Windows Logo key + R key to open Run dialog box.
• Type in devmgmt.msc and click OK.
• The Device Manager windows will appear.

Also, share the Hardware Ids of the device which has a bang in the Device Manager, this will assist me to identify device and its drivers. Here are the steps:

• Open Device Manager.

• Click Properties from the drop down list.
• Click Details and then click Device description button to select Hardware Ids.

Hi TAdriani,

Thank you for sharing the information. It appears that the drivers for the Ethernet card and Wireless card are missing. Try downloading the below set of drivers and check if it resolves the issue:

Please reply with the results.
