I recently reformatted a friends IBM NEtVista m42 computer. I have reformatted a few computers in the past (not IBM) without problems but for some reason I am not having much success with the ethernet driver.
I have downloaded drivers from IBM's site for the model number and installed them on the computer but it doesnt seem to work. I have tried numerous drivers, none coming back as fails but yet none working either.
Everytime I restart the machine, it prompts me saying I need to install the "Ethernet Controler" driver which comes up under "other devices" in the device mananger. The drivers I install do not come up anywhere in the device manager.
Any help would be greatly appreciated as I need to fix this for him ASAP.
