Sorry to bother again, but I'm stuck on this problem.
I have a Gigabyte GA-8KNXP (rev 1.x) motherboard with a onboard network chip (the Intel Pro/1000 CT). Just over a month ago it refused to work anymore, and a "add new hardware" screen would appear, telling me to install drivers for an "ethernet controller".
After it refused to read the original drivers I had, I downloaded a new copy of drivers for "Intel Pro/1000 family" including the new PROSet program. This installed and XP identified the chip correctly with no problems there.
However, I've since found that the network icon for the network card/chip still does not appear under "network connections", and the new PROSet program gives me an error, telling me that "The miniport driver could not be loaded."
I have no idea what's wrong now so please help.
