I found it was nearly impossible with XP. I had to get XP running then the drivers for the Ethernet and then let it update to SP3 then, finally I could install the XP SP3 WiFi drivers.
As to the Rockwell, good luck. I haven't seen anyone setup DIALUP in over a decade.
In parting, there is no step by step for this OS and your PC. Guides maybe but a Data/Fax modem is not Ethernet. If you don't know this, google up more the data/fax modem but today, garbage to most as there are few dialup ISPs left.
Hello,
I've had a lot of trouble with my project PC. It's an old 2000's brick that I bought for setting up with old games and things, so I had initially installed Windows 98 on it but I wasn't able to access the internet, couldn't update drivers, couldn't even get 32 bit colour etc. So I recently was able to buy an XP disk, and have installed in fresh.
I still am not able to access the internet though - I have the PC plugged into my modem via ethernet cable but it won't pick up. If I go into cmd then ipconfig absolutely nothing shows up when I press "enter", just IP CONFIG.
I have gone into Computer Management > Device Manager and found that I am missing drivers for Other devices > PCI Simple Communications Controller. I thought I might download the drivers via my regular laptop, then transfer them via usb to install them on the brick but every single one I can find is an .exe and requires internet connection to scan for the drivers needed.
Under properties for this missing PCI driver it comes up with PCI\VEN_127A&DEV_2005&SUBSYS_2005127A&REV_01\3&61AAA01&0&50 which I have found to be a Rockwell International HCF 56k Data/Fax Modem. But I still can't find the right drivers and I don't even know if this will help with the internet connection or not, I'm going to guess that's the slot my ethernet cable is plugged into though.
Also I have no sound, but it doesn't appear to be missing any drivers when I go onto the device manager list.
For the record, my PC is a PC Company one, which I think was only manufactured in NZ and they don't operate anymore so I can't even access resources from their website.
If you need anymore info from me please let me know but I'd be interested to see if anyone knows what I have done wrong. Thank you
