Make sure it's properly plugged into the PCI slot. If it's an onboard it might be defective.

Can you give the full specs of the machine you have this happening on? The solution i'm thinking of depends on what resources your BIOS assigns to the card.

Does this new device have a valid PCI ID? You can find out by running PCI32 from here.
If it does, install the driver. If it doesn't, click Next until it fails to install. It will appear in Device Manager as an unknown device. This post has been edited by Marius '95: Jul 24 2008, 07:16 PM |

PCI ID consists of Vendor ID and Product ID (and some other, less important, IDs).
They are shown on the first 2 lines for each PCI device, like this: Vendor 1011h Digital Equipment Corp (DEC) Device 0009h DecChip 21140 Fast Ethernet Adapter Command 0005h (I/O Access, BusMaster) Status 0280h (Supports Back-To-Back Trans., Medium Timing) ... ... If you installed the driver for that unknown device, did that fix your problem? This post has been edited by Marius '95: Jul 27 2008, 11:11 AM |

Test program PCI 32 shows that after reinstalling: Vendor 1106h VIA Technologies Inc Device 3106h VT6105 Rhine III Fast Ethernet Controller ..... Revision 8Bh, Header Type 00h, Bus Latency Timer 20h Minimum Bus Grant 03h, Maximum Bus Latency 08h ..... Subsystem ID 01061106h Unknown Subsystem Vendor 1106h VIA Technologies Inc Address 0 is an I/O Port : 0000C400h Address 1 is a Memory Address (anywhere in 0-4Gb) : DE000000h System IRQ 11, INT# A .... May by the card has a problem(equiped with VIA VT 6106L chip).The driver is for all family vt6105/6106L/.Internet works well ,but I think the problem is not fixed(sometimes new network device detected). Any solution to solve/change this situation? Thank you! |
