Not technically correct. If you go into 'Control Panel' and access the correct logs you will see what has transpired when the driver was loaded. Most Window users do not want to be bothered with the details of what happened; they just want it to work (actually, not a bad concept). Think about it; if Microsoft actually displayed by default all error messages they or the OEM would probably be inundated with frivolous requests for support. >unless you are buying motherboard for servers, DO NOT expect lan to >work ;) > >it's my common practice. > >nvidia ethernet was the worst one (it never worked), but realtek >gigabit ethernet on other motherboard needed the same as yours >(-txcsum, -rxcsum) or it randomly drop packets, probably because it >calculates checksums wrong. I had a friend who used nvidia. They never complained about it. I will see if I can find out what model and how they got it to work. --=20 Jerry gesbbb@yahoo.com semper en excretus --Sig_/saSTULAD2x64TRRR7XwZEOa Content-Type: application/pgp-signature; name=signature.asc Content-Disposition: attachment; filename=signature.asc -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: GnuPG v2.0.9 (FreeBSD) iEYEARECAAYFAkkJrNcACgkQBvaKIJWWCO1F3ACcCLx+uDkbICO/Hg4N4egWtzg2 nmcAoIks4Ca4C1EZThbjsrxc06qCIh+/ =zZOR -----END PGP SIGNATURE----- --Sig_/saSTULAD2x64TRRR7XwZEOa--
