Similar problem...
Hey, you might want to try downloading a driver from the Intel website to another computer or drive, then move it to windows 7 and run it.

Didn't work for me for though
.
This is my problem:
Intel Pro/100+ PCI Adapter.
On XP, drivers automatically install.
On windows 7, it won't find a proper driver, and when I downloaded the drivers from Intel and ran them, it says something like "you cannot install these drivers because an intel network card was not detected."
Then I try Winbond PCI Fast Ethernet Adapter. Again it works on xp, but same same problem as Intel on windows 7.
Finally, there is an on-board ethernet controller
, but it's never worked even for xp
.
I have even tried copying registry chunks and driver files manually from my xp installation to windows 7 as a last ditch effort, but it still doesn't work. The computer is basically useless to me without internet
Any ideas welcome!
