Hello, I recently had a video card die and I've just found my old card. But now some new problems have come up. After a fresh install of windows, I loaded up the mobo driver CD. I find that my onboard ethernet is read as "PCI device" instead of ethernet controller, and after installing the onboard sound, I get no sound. I can't seem to install any new PCI device either. I had an old sound card and even bought a new ethernet card today. Both are recognized, but I cant install the drivers for either. I get a message saying that it could not be installed, yet I manually chose the folder to search for it. It doesn't even look like it tries to search for the driver. I've reformatted the same hard drive with this mobo about 3 or 4 times in the past 2 years, and have never had a problem reinstalling the drivers. I flashed the bios to the newest version, and even installed the newest chipset (865) drivers from intel. I think there is something wrong with the plug and play feature. Does anyone have any ideas? I really don't feel like buying another motherboard. Thanks a lot for any help.
