Ethernet NIC works in 7 not xp on same laptop
Boggin:
I hit the Update button and it highlighted an ATA Channel - does that mean that needs updating ?
sfeinbe:
Partial update:
-Changing speeds for NIC: no change
-As you can see by the attached screenshot, error 1068 applied to the wired NIC.
Shane:
Check the event viewer and see if it says what other service failed to start.

If you mean in the hardware program, you click update database and a box will open where you can update it. :wink:

No, it was an Update button bottom right - it may just have been where the cursor landed - have used the database update but mine were just for some Toshiba bits & pieces.

I checked under "system" in the event viewer and found two errors, both related to this: hpdskflt
I don't think that's causing the issues. I also rolled back xp to a very early install before most updates and device drives. I installed ONLY the audio and NIC. Same problems as I have now with one difference: the volume control speaker appears and all audio functions under control panel appear to be working...except that it isn't and the device has a yellow exclamation mark in device manager.
NIC: wired auto config still doesn't start.
Note that I DID update four things from Microsoft. One was the NIC and one was the audio device. There was an HP update as well, which I think is related to hpdskflt. I can't remember the fourth, but I don't think it was an issue.
Other notes:
-ran chkdsk: all ok
-ipconfig: gave ip address of 192.168.8.103

In cases like this the trick is to find a different HP model with the same hardware.

Good idea! It's an HP DM1-4010us Entertainment PC. The attached is a screenshot from the BIOS setup.
