Default Connecting a Compaq 5192 to Comcast Cable Modem - Problems


"loosecannon" wrote in message
...
I'm trying to do a self-install of the software/hardware to get my cable
modem up and running and I've run into a brick wall.

The PC has an ethernet connection that I'm trying to use but according to
the not so helpful technician the proper drivers are not installed and I

was
wondering if anyone could help me out.

I'm getting a message that the PC has a network adapter installed but it's
"not bound to TCP/IP". For instructions on how to bind the adapter it says
to click on the "FIX" button but all I was getting was a very cryptic

error
message. When I called for help the tech said there was supposed to be
something after TCP/IP Dial-Up Adapter but she didn't tell me what. Just
said I should contact the manufacturer of the computer. Could not find
anything at the Compaq site.

When I go to add an adapter or driver I'm presented with a whole bunch of
manufacturers and for each one a bunch of different drivers. I tried a few
under Compaq but nothing seems to work.

Does anyone know the correct manufacturer and driver combo I should be

using
so I can get past this error and finish the installation?

Any help will be greatly appreciated.

Joe

What OS are you using? Also what is the make/model of your Network Adapter?
