Hello all,

I just got this little PC to format and setup. It's a Dell Dimension 2400 with a Celeron 2.4 gHz cpu, 256 mb ram, and a 40 gb HD. Formatting and installing Windows went without a problem. When I was done, however, I had to download a video driver to get more than one resolution from the onboard video.
Then I tried to connect to the internet - no luck. Dell's site has "network" drivers, the appropriate of which I installed, but trying a search for "ethernet" got no results. When I look at Device Manger the Ethernet section says there's no driver installed.

Anybody have any ideas?

I'd really like to get this little box online.

Thanks,
Ken
