  • "Receive the error message" Windows cannot find a driver for your network card.

    Original title: unable to connect to the internet. Perhaps driver problems?

    I installed windows 7 on a blank hard drive.

    Everything seems to be fine. When I open solitarie it is said ' Harware acceleration is disabled or not supported by your video card driver, which could slow down the performance of the game. "
    A mistake is over that I noticed that I can not connect to internet.
    My ethernet cable is fine, he hooked directly to the wireless router. so I troubleshoot-made it and the error is "Windows could not fine a driver for your network adapter" HELP Please thank you.

    If you have recently installed Windows 7, you must also install the device drivers for your hardware.  Windows has some drivers shipped with the operating system, but away from it all.  They are not necessarily the best drivers.  For example, you may be using a generic video driver with limited capabilities.

    Looks like you need at least the network adapter and video drivers.   It is best to get their form your computer factory web site.  You need to get the Ethernet disk using another computer to get to the line at the start.

    I recommend that you check device manager and see what other devices may need to update.
