    Default Not about car, but about PC

    So I have a Alienware laptop, last week my computer ran outta warranty so I called them up and tried to get them to help me figure out but they said they couldn't and could only give me tips, which I knew everything they tipped me about...

    so I am currently trying to connect to my modem box, So I came here to see if anyone can help me...
    I went
    Under device manager
    under Other devices
    Ethernet Controller has a yellow circle with a black explanation point on it... Went to property's
    says its not configured correctly (code 1)
    ???

    Any one help me?
    Whats that mean? how you tell me how to fix it?

    -if this is in the wrong area mods sorry switch for me?
    tried to reinstall and the computer searchs for the hardware but cant find anything..

    Couldn't you have just posted this in the right section instead of where you want and having someone else move it? Later, QD.

    That mean you need to update the driver. You either use the factory driver cd to install it or download it through their website: http://support.alienware.com/Support...downloads.aspx.
    You can give me you model # and I will download it for you if you want.

    Your network card use the driver in the nvidia chipset driver. Download it here: http://www.nvidia.com/content/licens...ional_whql.exe
    It is an executable file, so just run it(do not install the nvidia firewall manager when it ask you, it takes up your memory), and follow the direction, and restart the computer. It should work after.

    Most of the time, when the system knows what the device is but not knowing how to run it, it just sounds like you need to do a clean up and restore.
