Hi Experts<br />
<br />
I received a IBM T61 that needed a rebuilt.Backed up the data.Installed OS and all the drivers.Copied data back.I then noticed that the on board network card is not listed under device manager.Every other device is installed and device manager does not show any unknown devices.<br />
I have checked in the bios, the nic is enabled.I have checked show hidden devices under device manager, still no luck.Tried windows updates etc.

Networking hardware includes the physical devices facilitating the use of a computer network. Typically, networking hardware includes gateways, routers, network bridges, modems, wireless access points, networking cables, line drivers, switches, hubs, and repeaters. But it also includes hybrid network devices such as multilayer switches, protocol converters, bridge routers, proxy servers, firewalls, network address translators, multiplexers, network interface controllers, wireless network interface controllers, ISDN terminal adapters and other related hardware.

A laptop or notebook is a portable personal computer with a clamshell form factor, suitable for mobile use. Although originally there was a distinction between laptops and notebooks, the former being bigger and heavier than the latter, there is often no longer any difference. Laptops are commonly used in a variety of settings, such as at work, in education, and for personal multimedia. A laptop combines the components, inputs, outputs and capabilities of a desktop computer, including the display screen, speakers, a keyboard, and pointing devices (such as a touchpad or trackpad) into a single unit. The device can be powered either from a rechargeable battery or by mains electricity from an AC adapter.

Microsoft hardware includes mice, keyboards, webcams, headsets, display adapters, gaming consoles (including the Xbox One) and the Microsoft Surface family of tablets
