no network adaptor... no LAN

[happy17292]

one of my friend had pentium D, 512MB RAM, AsRock 775i65GV motherboard. i bought it from him as i wanted to set up a LAN based gaming to play with my friends.
problem is i bought only motherbaord and CPU.
i installed my RAM and 40GB IDE HDD and CD ROM then installed XP SP3
i downloaded drivers from official site of ASRock and installed them

when i clicked network connections from control panel, it shows blank window, there is no LAN connection shown there. if i try to set up a home or small office network, it shows cannot complete network setup wizard. cannot find your network hardware.

if checked in device manager, there is no network adaptor there

what should i do? this board has LAN port and i have installed LAN drivers too



please help ASAP

Also, double check connecting wires, modems properly. Try using different lan cable

download all the drivers available for ur mobo.
Probably:
* graphics - video drivers
* Audio - sound drivers
* LAN - for integrated lan and lan cards

if any other drivers are available other than these, then download and install them too.
