Sugested PCI NIC For Windows 7
Dear Friends,
I have a friend that need to buy a inexpensive PCI NIC that Windows 7 will recognize, he have an old Amptron mobo with an integrated SIS900 eithernet chip that we cannot get to work with 7. It work fine with XP though.
Do anyone know of a cheep PCI card that will work with 7 It would be even better if you know how to get the SIS to work with 7

Have you tried the XP drivers? I have had luck with other devices using the xp drivers in Windows 7.

If you could get the current nic working would you want to? there are many vendors using that chipset and drivers (at least XP) are available and might work if installed in compatibility mode

How do I do that Compatibility Mode thing?

Find a driver for your device and download it. right click the installer and click on the compatibility tab set for whatever OS the driver is from.
Let us know if you need help
