    Hi


    A friend of mine asked me to re-install his Asus F5Z notebook with Windows XP.

    I installed successfully all drivers from Asus driver download site ASUSTeK Computer Inc.-Support-. Everything is working fine but the Ethernet driver. The installation of Lan Driver for Windows XP finishes with strange message "Please shutdown & plug Realtech PCI-e card to complete the installation.

    Not sure if it matters but OnChip SATA is in 'Native IDE' mode . The original one with Vista was 'IDE -> AHCI mode'. I had to change it so I was able to install XP.

    Any idea how I can make the LAN adapter to work under Windows XP?

    I created a question on windows xp - Which LAN driver should I use for Asus F5Z ? - Super User

    I read this thread http://forum.notebookreview.com/asu...ver-install-device-manager-3.html#post4482436 but the driver didn't work.

    Thank you

    R.
