I have an Asus L410 laptop.I have installed XP home with the drivers from Asus web site.
Everything is OK execpt for the ethernet controller. The drivers I have from the site do not work I have tried other drivers from other models but no luck. Contacted Asus but no help as the warrenty has runout and want me to ring a premium no. I believe the MB is a Foxconn RS690L but can not find the model no on their site. Tied inputing 690L etc but no luck. Used the Sandra software to check specs on machine. The Asus is also known as model no AL5100. Have also unistalled and reinstalled chipset but no joy. Any elp would be appreciated. Thanking you in advance. |

Have you gone into Device Manager and asked Windows to update the driver, allowing it to do an automatic search using the internet?

yeh, it depends were the computer is from mate. You may find it difficult to locate some specific driver's if the motherboard is specific to certain system build's. Hence they will not be available to public download, Stupid but there you go. Ill have a look into it for you and see what i can come up with.

here's the driver from the acer europe web site, if te setup.exe dosent do it for you then manually install the driver, right click on the network card in device manager and click update driver click browse my computer and point to the ini file in the driver folder.
