No LAN connection for desktop

I just reinstalled windows XP and now I cant find the LAN connection.
On top of that it shows that my Ethernet is in yellow with a question mark and yellow exclamation mark.
How can I fix this ?

Hi Mundo,

You need to install the driver for your LAN device.

Before you do this, install the CHIPSET driver for your PC FIRST!

/ Crit.
To add to CriticalPoints suggestion. Go to Start/Run and type devmgmt.msc and press enter. In the Device Manager any devices with yellow marks need drivers installed. If you have a name brand computer (HP, Dell etc) go to the manufacturers support/download drivers site and type in your service tag # or make and model # to download any drivers you need. As Crit said, install the Chipset driver first. If you need help finding the drivers, on your next post include the make and model# of your computer.
