There's integrated LAN on the board, but it may not be enabled in BIOS. What kind of temperatures are you getting? Have you felt the air inside the case?
Could you please explain how i would do that? temp wise at the moment using my ABIT uGuru program CPU 39C SYS 36C and PWM 41C
Those temps are well within reason. The passive cooling on that motherboard works very well. I don't have the manual for the AN8-32X, but when you get into BIOS, look in the Integrated Peripherials menu. It is most likely there. If you haven't, I would suggest reading the BIOS section in your manual. Abit typically has pretty robust manuals with their motherboards, and that includes the BIOS settings.
OK went into BIOS turned in my LAN Card and still on luck wont work for some reason.... created a new connection and everything
ok here are two snapshots one of my network connections and another of my device manager.... The D-Link is the card i installed... and the picture of my Network Connections: The INternet GateWay is what came up w/ my D-Link card installed and the LAC on the left is my D-Link Card's connection
Allrighty, figured out the problem... finally found the right driver for my MObo.... Once agin thanks Big B... and everyone else for you help... -Maniac
Yup, that'd do the trick. I saw your earlier post and I was about to suggest that. Glad ya got it working. :good:
Haha, happy now... took out that D-Link Card.. put back in my second 7900GT and away I go.... so happy...and plus my HL2 mods run right thanks a bunch Big b and everyone else on this fourm
