Greetings,

During a lightning storm, the power failed. Upon reboot, a message indicated
that new hardware had been found. I tried getting the drivers from the
Windows XP Installation CD as well as other CDs, to no avail.

This seems related to a USB 2.0 port? However, I am not sure. Can anyone
help?
In the hardware configuration the drivers it is trying to look for are 2Wire
USB Remote NDIS Ethernet.

I am trying the knowledge base in parallel, but my initial search yielded
nothing.

Thank you.

Jean-Pierre

P.S. This is the second time in as many weeks that I loose sofware in an
abnormal shutdown...

This is not related to windows for drivers, I would look at the manufactors
web site of your ethernet card, it's looking for it on your USB plugs.

sgopus,

Thank you for the response.

Some research on the internet reveleaded that the drivers are related to the
wireless router modem connected to the machine. It is manufactured by 2wire
and sold by the local internet provider. I am contacting both.

Meanwhile, internet connectivity is ok, but I have not powered down the
modem. I am hoping only wireless is affected.

Regards,

Jean-Pierre
