I've commenced with doing a clean installation of Windows 7, and am having problems with some of the basics, because I have misplaced the motherboard disc, and had to download the files individually from the manufacturer's website.
The most important at the moment is the driver for the ethernet controller, so that I can get access to the internet. I'm thinking the driver necessary is the one labeled simply LAN. It is a zip files that when extracted produces a .cab file.
I thought that all I had to do was to install it from the Device Manager directing the installation to the .cab, but it quickly said that it couldn't find anything there.
Is this because the LAN file is the wrong one, or because I'm doing something else wrong? The bottom line is how to install the ethernet driver? Here is the download page:
