how do i install my ethernet controller?
 

Hi I recently reinstalled my computer only to find the Internet not working. I need to install drivers for my ethernet controller. I think I need a disc that came with the device. I haven't found the disc so I was wondering if there's another way of solving the problem?

Yep, you need to know the manufacturer and model of the device - once you have that information you should be able to download the drivers from their site.

It's the blue ethernet cable supplied by Virgin Media. It connects my pc to the black ntl modem box. I figured it would come with a CD. Are you saying that I would need to find out the manufacturer which is ntl and the model number which should be on the modem box, right?

No, I mean the card INSIDE your computer/laptop.

The 'Ethernet Controller' will be inside your machine, part of your computer/laptops, and doesn't relate to the modem or cable which NTL supplied.

seeing as we have had quite a discussion on what your motherboard is as long as we are talking about the same machine the drivers are here under lan
