Hi gang,

   I have multiple D600's and started working with one for the first time today. As our client uses Win 2K, I reloaded the system. Initially, the Intel Pro/Wireless adapter came up but I had a hard time installing it. In fact, I could never get it to configure properly. It appeared at first like it was installed, but when I'd check it in Device Mgr, it would tell me the adapter was not active and was not configured.

   I know I reloaded it a bunch of times, with each time making things worse. What I ended up with is a "Ethernet Controller" in "Other Devices". This device will not accept even it's own driver. I remove it, rescan and the system finds it again, yet no driver works including the Dell Intel Pro/Wireless driver "R64838".

   So now, I have a system that, unless I can get a fix or decide to reload W2k again, I can't use the network adapter on.

   Anyone else get this issue?

Also, Q: Also, does the network port on the back of the laptop work independently from the wireless adapter? Or is it integrated with the wireless chip? I really just want WIRED lan ability more than anything.
