Cable Forum - View Single Post - Disableing onboard networking and using stand alone network card.

Hi all,

I've come across a small issue. I'd like to be able to use a stand alone network card.....BelkinF5D5005 instead of plugging in to the network socket on the motherboard. When I plug the cable into the new card and re-boot etc, etc I get the "network card is unplugged message" on the taskbar.

Am I doing something wrong here? Do I need to disable the on board first?

Virgin Media

Netgear Wireless router WGR 614 ver9(hard wired to this pc)

Thanks in advance.

Steve.
