Win XP Network card driver problem (by 3 users)


posted by graygun on Nov 04, 2007


Hello,
I have a problem with my network card. I have installed the hardware, but
when i go to install the drivers windows Xp installs them (the XP drivers
which i downloaded from your site) and then it finishes and claims that
"There was a problem installing this hardware:
Ethernet controller

An error occured during the installation of this hardware
The data is invalid."

And the device is left uninstalled.
I have tried updating windows XP with every update i can get from them but
nothing has worked. I have tried several drivers from edimax.com but all
with
the same result. So this has lead me to believe it is a problem with my
system.
Can anyone help me sort this problem?

My system specs:
Network card: Edimax Fast Ethernet Adapter EN-9130TX
CPU: AMD Athalon 1600+
Graphics card: NVIDIA GeForce 2 MX/MX 400
Sound Card: Soundblaster Live

Its a driver issue or a hardware issue. meaning that yourn etwork card may be fried. could have static damage. or your not downloading the correct version of your drivers.
