    Hi Guys,

    New poster here. I can usually figure these things out on my own, but I've been SOL for about two weeks. I've read through a bunch of the threads, but have had no success. Any help would be appreciated.

    Anyways,
    I recently reformatted my SZ230P and for some god forsaken reason, I can't get the ethernet port to work. I've installed all the necessary drivers, but everytime I go to install the LAN driver, it just says "failure to update driver."

    Has anybody by chance had this problem?

    Thanks in advance! :)

    Re-install, every once in a while Windows will bork an install, and something just will not work right.
