NEED ethernet driver - Dell OptiPlex™ GX270 PC Desktop

That means that the operating system doesn't have a database for your Ethernet device. You have to have the driver that came together with your PC and you should find the driver for your Ethernet device using that.

Hi,
If you have no internet because the ethernet controller was not installed, you will need to download the ethernet drivers from another computer.
To do this, you will need either the motherboard model or the ethernet controller model. Search google for your motherboard model, and then on the drivers page, find "LAN drivers". Download the drivers, save them to a usb and transfer and install them to your pc.

It's possible the drivers are not installed.. To check if drivers are properly installed for the Ethernet card, if you have win XP
* go to Start>Control Panel>System> click on Hardware tab, then Device Manager
- once you're on Device Manager, look for network adapter, you should see something like "Via Rhine II Fast Ethernet Adapter", this is just an example, you may have a different brand of Ethernet adapter
- if you can see the Ethernet Adapter and it has a green icon beside it, it should be working fine, you can also double click on it, to view the Status
- if you don't see the Ethernet Adapter on the list, look under the section "Other Devices", if you see an "Ethernet Controller" on the list with a yellow exclamation point, it means the drivers for the Ethernet Adapter were not installed, which means the drivers has to be re-installed
- you need the manufacturer cd for the drivers

*Now if there's no "Ethernet Controller" on Other Devices section, it's possible the Ethernet card is not being detected by the computer
- you may have to unplug the Ethernet card physically from the computer (computer must be completely turned off) then try to insert the Ethernet card again and boot up the computer, if the computer detects the Ethernet card, you need to install the drivers
- If the computer doesn't detect the Ethernet card, most probably it's busted. You may have to replace it.. You can also try to install the Ethernet card on a different computer just to check if it's really the Ethernet card or the motherboard that's the problem..

Drivers are located here: http://h20000.www2.hp.com/bizsupport/TechSupport/DriverDownload.jsp?prodNameId=316715&lang=en&cc=us&prodTypeId=12454&prodSeriesId=316713&taskId=135

You must select the appropriate operating system for your application

You do not give the manufacturer of the motherboard; go to their website for a download of the needed drivers. You will need to know the board's model number.

Hi,
You need to re-install your Ethernet driver.If you have Driver CD with you then first uninstall the Ethernet driver from device manager and install the Ethernet driver from you driver CD.
If you don't have driver CD with you then You can download ethernet driver by Clicking here.

Hi there
Go here for the Ethernet driver you need, it is the "chipset" driver you need as the network controller (ethernet driver) is bundled with it.
I would recommend downloading all the drivers and backing them up just in case you need them in future.
