[SOLVED] Ethernet controller code 28

roblonsdale · 11-20-2007, 01:46 PM

I've recently had to fit a new hard drive as my old one died, after the long and boring task of re-installing all my software and updating drivers etc I'm down to a few last tasks, one of which is trying to get my wireless router working again. Every time I try to connect using it I get the cannot connect to server message and so I'm having to use my old USB modem. When I look in the device manager I noticed that ethernet controller has a yellow thingy next to it and it says that the drivers are not installed code 28.
Help..!!

Hi Roblonsdale,
Welcome to the forum.
Can you give us the specs of your computer?
Thanks,
Bill

roblonsdale · 11-21-2007, 11:24 AM

AMD Athlon XP 2800+ 2.09Ghz 1.00 GB Ram
What else do you need to know?

**Doby** · 11-21-2007, 08:29 PM

Run the motherboard cd and install all the drivers.
What motherboard do you have?
If this is a brand computer tell us the name and model number

**BCCOMP** · 11-21-2007, 09:41 PM

We need to know if this is a laptop or a PC (I am thinking laptop). Please give us the make model etc. If you are not sue run EVEREST under my sig and post the results.
Thanks,
Bill

Hi Rob,
Glad to help. Was it the unified driver that worked for you? Just like to know in case other members review the thread.
Thanks,
Bill

Bill,

Yes it was the unified driver, it also fixed some other problems I was having with sound and stuff.

Thanks again.

Hi Vuongch1,
Try reinstall the driver. Here is a link to your divers:

I am not sure what driver you are reffering to (Network?)

@Kimmer1966 ,

I need to know the make and model of this computer.
Also is it the Network card you are reffering to?

To both of you, I may move your post to thier own threads so there will be no confusion between you two. I will inform you through a PM if I decide to do this.

Thanks,
Bill
