Default Network Controller Problems

Before i installed Vista ultimate my pc always connected to the internet fine
with windows XP. Now that ive upgraded to vista i am no longer able to
connect to the internet. It says im missing a driver for my network
controller. As far as i knew before upgrading i didnt even have a network
controller. I was wondering if there was a generic driver out there that
would solve my problems or if i have to find out exactly what kind i have and
if so how do i go abouts doing this. Any help would be much appreciated.
Thanks.

Default Network Controller Problems

Hello Dave.Lyle,

Check your hardware documentation to find out the NIC information. Or go
to the laptop vendor website and check for drivers compatible with Vista.
Even if you don't realizied it under XP, theire was still a driver in use.
What kind of hardware did you use?

Best regards
