C600 Ethernet & Modem (not recognized)
Hi there,
as i noticed there are some other threads started with this topic, but none of them gave me a clear answer.
I got WinXP Pro Sp1, my latitude is totaly not recognizing the network card and mode it's like it doesnt exist! i tried to check bios(a23) but it says that there are no minipci devices installed.. well is it maybe a physical problem ?? I need some help on this, i looked up whole bios and i didnt find anything to do with enabling this combo minpci. help ? please ?

The network and modem are on the same card but they dont use the combine drivers u need to install them seperatly.
Does the device manager reconize the devices or not?
if they dont try removing the card and plugging it bzack inagain, you will need to consult the manual for this
i hope this helps

u mite need to allow it to be seen in the bios
do a bios reset to defaults
if this doesnt wrk then, remove that card form the notebook and plug it back in again and see that solves the problem

If the BIOS is saying you don't have a modem/NIC card installed in the MiniPCI slot then you don't have one or it has gone south and you need to replace it.
There is nothing else you can do.
