I recently did a refresh install of Windows XP Pro on my IBM ThinkPad T43. Like all the other refreshes I have done, I had all the drivers ready. I downloaded all the drivers from IBM and all seemed to work fine. The wireless drivers worked and is detecting my network at home. But, when I installed the network driver, everything seemed to install correctly, but when I goto the Device Manager it still says the driver hasn't been installed. I looked for an EXE where the driver install was installed to the hdd. I didnt find one. The Network Connections only shows my wireless (which doesn't actually connect to the internet, but connects to my wireless). Am I missing something basic? Is there something within windows that I have to set up? Like I said, I downloaded the latest network drivers from IBM, and I am sure they are right, but the Ethernet still isn't recognized within Windows.
This is the first refresh I have done on this laptop though, my other refreshes were seamless.
Any help would be great. Thanks.
