Ethernet Controller Driver problems

Question

I have a Inspiron 600m. My wireless adapter works fine, but my wired ethernet connection does not. In my Device Manager screen, I have Yellow [?] listed under Other divices > Ethernet Controller. On the Ethernet Controller Properties dialog, the Device status says: The drivers for this device are not installed. When I try to reinstall the driver however, windows reports that it cannot find a suitable driver.

Did you order the system with the Broadcom 10/100 ethernet controller or the Broadcomo Gigabit controller?   Drivers for the 10/100 can be downloaded from:   http://support.dell.com/support/downloads/type.aspx?c=us&cs=19&l=en&s=dhs&SystemID=INS_PNT_PM_600M&os=WW1&osl=en&deviceid=2966   Drivers for the Gigabit controller can be downloaded from:   http://support.dell.com/support/downloads/type.aspx?c=us&cs=19&l=en&s=dhs&SystemID=INS_PNT_PM_600M&os=WW1&osl=en&deviceid=2967   Steve
