I have a fairly new desktop (8 months old) with windows xp. On another
partition I installed Vista Business, then updated the chipset drivers for my
system. The network adapter was not picked up so I installed it manually with
the updated drivers from the manufacturer (integrated adapter) which seemed
to work (it made a connection) but when I re-booted there was no network
connection and the light on the card is not longer on. In the device manager
it says the card is working properly. I tried reinstalling the adapter driver
but to no avail. My network/internet connection works fine in XP.

I'm suspecting it may be some sort of security issue or possibly something
with the drivers although I contacted the manufacturer of the machine
(Systemax) and they said they've had no reported problems with the drivers.

Please help...I'm wasting too much time on this.

Thanks
