« on: October 26, 2009, 02:14:41 PM »
I bought and installed a WD caviar blue 320gb pata hard drive, installed windows xp from a reinstallation cd that came with my old computer so there are no service packs on it, when i go to hardware listed in my device manager there are no network adapters listed, i cannot connect to the internet on that computer and do not know what to do, help?

You need to install the chipset driver - should be on a disc that came with your system. Then download and install the latest service pack for Windows
