I've found that .net Server RC1 does NOT install ethernet drivers for my linksys network card leaving my computer without broadband internet access. I've tried to install all the possible drivers I could think of such as the original from the floppy, and newer ones from the website....and everytime i try to install it, it gives an INF error message or something to that affect. Everything else is fine because it can be turned on from Programs > Administrative Tools > Services

Any advice on what to do because I'd like to try using this to see how it differs over WinXP. but I don't want to do it unless I can get my net access to work properly.

Thanks

Hard to believe nobody has an answer to this.......and to think Betaone prides themselves in having all this accumluated knowledge. :)

I don't know for the moment because my download is not finish yet :lol:

Thanks. at least you RESPONDED....although it wasn't the answer I needed. lol

Do you have a dualboot one for the WinXP Pro, and one for the Windows.NET if so you can use the drivers used by Winxp Pro, just browse to the inf directory of the Winxp Pro. try to locate the inf of your lynksys network card. There will be a message it not tested by .NET but just continue the installation..

this method does not work i tried that with cmedia driver for my dound card and it wont work with anyway over net.i identify it as a cemedia driver with the version number and the mixer but it wont work.

I've the same problem with my network card, a Realtek one!

I've installed the inf of the drivers in safe mode! Try the safe mode!
