Dimension 8400 Ethernet Adapter Driver
Where does Dell supply the drivers for a Dimension 8400 for the Intel Pro/1000 Integrated Ethernet Adapter?

Thanks, but the only drivers there are Broadcom 57XX Gigabit Integrated Controller. My paperwork from 2 years ago calls out an Intel PRO/1000 Integrated Ethernet PCI NIC. This network adapter is on my motherboard.spencerh33

thanks for the efforts!!The Broadcom drivers on the Dell website were the ones. I guess Broadcom works with Intel?who knows....at least it's working now.- I had a hard drive failure and ran into the same situation when I was reinstalling all the drivers. My paperwork said I have a Intel Pro 1000 Integrated PCI NIC card. I couldnt find anything on the dell website for it so I used the Broadcom 570X download #R87461 that was recommended for 8400 series. I loaded it on a CD, and popped it into the computer, and bingo... instant ethernet. Everything works now. :smileyvery-happy:
