Hi

I've got a 250 with haxorware on it and the ethernet port is knackered.

Does anyone know if there's a 250 usb driver for vista x64.

All I'm getting on google is xp drivers

lol get the soldering iron out mate, replace eth port.
aka: no.

You can fk about with vista to make it allow unsigned drivers, maybe then the xp driver would work, but my advice is just replace the port.

The port has already been replaced with no joy

fitz · 28-02-09, 02:18 AM

what are the symptoms of bad eth? 'network cable unplugged'?

i assume you've tried installing the xp drivers on vista?

cheers, fitz

with vista 64 you are probably out of luck.

bruce2728 · 28-02-09, 11:17 AM

ok cheers. is there an adapter usb > enet?

Bad_Ad84 · 28-02-09, 11:24 AM

dont think theres a direct adapter it would need the drivers for the modem.... another pc and share the connection is about the only way i think...

i can find surfboard usb drivers for vista, if I add the device id to the inf do you think that may work?

Bad_Ad84 · 28-02-09, 11:51 AM
