PE400SC NIC problem with Win XP PRO

I was trying to install the Intel driver for Gigabit NIC on 400SC and it won't work. One thread on this forum said that the drivers are on the CD that come with system but I was unable to find drivers for XP. There are drivers for 2000 and 2003.

I tried to get the driver from Intel's site and those won't work. Please help me.

    Use the 2000 drivers.  They will work fine.

    I cannot get my XP to find the Network Adaptor. Is there something I need to do with the Dell set-up?

    I'm having the same problem.

    I know the NIC works because I had Linux installed with no problem.  Now I put Win XP Pro on it and I have no connectivity.

    I tried the Win2K intel drivers from the Dell site (Intel-Lan... and NIC_DRVR-R68021) to upgrade the driver via the Windows XP Pro Device Manger, and no worky.

    I also tried putting a spare NIC in the box and running the install diskette for that one, with similar results - yellow question marks in the device manager for my NICs.

    Any help would be great !

    I had trouble finding the drivers on Dell's web site.

    However I found the NIC type in the documentation:  It's an Intel 8254OEM.

    I downloaded the driver from this page on Intel's web site and it works fine with my 400SC:

    http://www.intel.com/design/network/products/ethernet/linecard_ec.htm

    Scroll down and get the 8254OEM driver.  This should work for you.
