onboard driver - p4p800-vm

hi,

i have asus p4p800 vm board, win 2003 server couldnt find any driver for the
lan card onboard. In the cd also it has only NT and XP drivers but non of
them worked out

thanks for help...

The link below is to a web page for drivers for that board. I do not see
W2003 drivers for the network adapter. What I would do is try the network
adapter drivers for W2K/XP as they may work. If that does not work, disable
the onboard nic and put in a new PCI nic. If you don't have any and have a
small budget you can buy many fine PCI nics from 3Com or Intel on Ebay. ---

Hi Steve,

I also found all these drivers and all of them are useless... Microsoft or
Asus should find a solution to his (esp. Asus) Why do i have to buy a new
device if I have it already ? (without the drivers ofcourse)

Do you think that upgrading the BIOS will help ?

Thanks,

J.

Upgrading the BIOs will have no effect on the integrated Intel Network
interface. I checked for a driver direct from Intel and there is NO support
for that chipset and Windows 2003. For a VERY economical cost you can
disable it in the BIOs and purchase a NIC designed for Windows 2003... You
have probably spend the cost twice over + in attempting to make it work
labor-wise...

buying a new nic is not the point, the point is with a brand new motherboard
and with the newest OS i have still driver problems... though with XP i dont
have such problem... why cant they just put the drivers in the OS which is
developed later than the XP ? or is it that hard to put some inf files in
such a server OS ?
