Hello,

I just build a new computer and installed win xp.

My motherboard is an ASUS P5K /SE.

I have installed the drivers cd that came with it.

Motherboard has build in network adaptor (PCIe Gigabit LAN controller featuring AI NET2 + as a rear pannel connector 1 x LAN (RJ-45) port according to the book )

But in the device mangager there is no network adapter listed, how is this possible?

Obviously my network connections are empty too and I cant connect to the net.

I have tried to look into the BIOS, went to default settings and looked that internet is enabled but still my XP service pack 1 install doesn't see any network adapter.

I have no idea how to even troubleshoot, it's like the hardware is missing.

Everything else works fine.
