Thanks for that, but wasnt the ones i need.

 

We have some computers that have Nvida nForce Networking Controller

 

I thought the Realtek 8211 might work as there is a chip with that written on the motherbaord.

 

please can someone help find me dos drivers i can't seem to find them

on the site they all seem to be graphics cards.

As pointed out its an Nvidia driver you are after not a Realtek one, it can be a pain as its in two parts but there is a handy guide. Do you know which board or chipset it is you have?

Goto:

Drivers - Download NVIDIA Drivers

Select "nforce" as the product type and then select the edition and that should be it?

thanks but not the ones

[PeterW]

Sorry I got the completly wrong end of the stick, those I have linked to are the DOS drivers

 

Try these Acer Europe - Service & Support, Drivers & Utilities, Downloads, Desktop, Acer Veriton M464

[FN-GM]

i need the DOS drivers

 

thanks

[PeterW]

Did you try the ones I posted? What happened, they are not like normal NDIS drivers you will need to run NDIS2.exe before the NIDS.DOS driver is loaded.

well use just the nds to create a ghost bootdisk to test them. gave an error message and in ghost you dont have any network communication.

 

Thanks allot

[PeterW]

In that case download the drivers from the first link I posted and have a look through the pdf guide included, it explains how to make a ghost boot disk as you have to manually edit it (unless you have done that alread).

[FN-GM]

Thanks for the help i decided to get some NICs for them. The amount of time that it needs it isnt worth it.

Sounds like a sensible move.

Anyone suss this?

Just bought some for a primary school i work at and unfortunately using Symantec Solutions Suite to Ghost is looking like a real pain in the bum.

I can't find a compatible set of NDIS drivers anywhere and the ones that are linked to don't seem to work either. I dont really wanna buy network cards for them as it seems a waste of money. Any help would be greatly appreciated!!! GREATLY!!!

[FN-GM]

Yep,

 

The new version of netboot disk has them on. But they come under AMD Nic drivers

[mac_shinobi]

siw ( SIW | System Information for Windows by Gabriel Topala ) and find out chipset or motherboard and post back and go from there.

[apoth0r]

Sorry been a long day.....

 

Where can i find them mate?

I only have 3 AMD options in the Ghost Boot Wizard neither of them mentioning NIC.

Not sure why they are in the AMD as this 464 is a dual core.

 

I'm going a bit nutty :S
