Re: cant get ethernet to work

I havent read thru all the posts so you may or may not have already been advised this.

If you have an ONBOARD ethernet adapter or internal you may find that it is dissabled on your BIOS

To access your BIOS when your computer is turned on you will see something along these lines "Press DEL to setup" or similar with different keys, usualy F1, DEL, HOME, ESC

If the BIOS is password protected please check with your administrator, Manufacturer, retail store purchased from or friend

Enter the password and check with system settings if the Ethernet adapter or LAN (Local Area network) is active

Be sure to save your settings before exiting the BIOS
