Seeing Other devices with entry of Ethernet Controller within Device Manager
Hi Everyone:
I have everything looking good with respect to drivers within Device Manager with the exception of one thing. There is an entry called Other devices and within it there is Ethernet controller. The ethernet controller is onboard. The OS is Windows XP and the name of the pc is HP Pavilion 522c.
I suspect this is a simple driver issue, but, I am not for sure though. Any assistance will be appreciated.
Thank you
George

Hi Everyone:
The problem is now resolved. The ethernet adapter is within the proper category of control panel. The link to the unified drivers for the pc which made this possible was given by Cyber-Dude's link with the winxp 5.10. Special thanks also to nobus for the link to the software used to identify hardware which is not properly identified within control panel. The program used in this instance was Everest.
Thanks again everyone for such prompt replies and awesome suggestions.

After running Everst Home Edition, I found the ethernet card to be identified as follows: nVIDIA nForce MCP Networking Adapter. Unfortunately, I can not find a link to this driver at the HP Pavilion 522c Drivers page. Perhaps I am overlooking it, I am not sure.
Any further help on finding XP drivers for the nVIDIA nForce MCP Networking Adapter will be appreciated.
Thank you.
