An old machine we had with a "Rhine II Fast Ethernet adapter" died so I used another card.
Also I couldn't tell if the internet is working or not to this machine. If it works, research how to disable that message.

I just got internet cable installed in my comp a few days ago, it did seem to be okay but I keep getting a message saying "a network cable is unplugged" but it's not unplugged.. so I waited, and I went and changed the cable eventually, it seemed to behave for a bit, two hours later I get the message again, and sometimes in succession, especially at night. So then I went to go get my driver updated... so I thought okay this should work now, so it did say network cable is unplugged after i updated the driver (which I expected..) but now it just did it again! ![]()
I did a network test to see if there's any problems, and it said that my connection failed with the DCHP server.. everything else worked though. I tried to ping the address that was listed in the server, but it got no response. I even went to another site and it gave no response when I tried to ping that. I really don't want to go call videotron(my cable company) and get them to come over because it's really random first of all, secondly I'm starting school next week so I don't have the time to hang around 5 hours a day.. It seems like I also get errors at those times to saying things like:
The system detected that network adapter \DEVICE\TCPIP_{D5118E14-CE98-4859-8376-0C8DCF4BC8C3} was connected to the network, and has initiated normal operation over the network adapter.
My network card is Rhine II Fast Ethernet adapter, I don't know what else to do, please help me!
