Got an nForce4 mobo and installed it, but I am not able to get on the internet.

Tried installing the included NAM on the cd that comes with it, but it doesnt exist on there.

How am I supposed to fix this? I cant download anything because I cant get online...

Check your TCP/IP settings, because your router may not have DHCP enabled, or it has some sort of security thing on it that may or may not involve mac addresses (I doubt it), or you have a dead nic.  Try to ping it, ping 127.0.0.1, if you can't, it's a hardware issue, not a software issue.  Also there SHOULD be network drivers on the cd that came with the mobo, so look there again.

I definitely recommend Drano.

1) I try to install it and it says file is locked
2) It says file does not exist on the cd

Sounds like there's something wrong with your drivers.

Okay right click on my computer, click manage, go to system tools>device manager, then click on network adapters, write down EXACTLY what it says for your nic, then do a google search for "blah blah blah drivers".  For mine I would do "nvidia nforce networking controller" driver

And then you should be able to find it.

Or you can also do this one thing while you're in computer management, make sure the installation disc is in the drive, go back to the device manager, right click on the name of the nic, and click update driver, see if that helps, becuase it might somehow find it then.

You should be able to go here, click Platform/nForce drivers, find your motherboard, pick your operating system, and download them.
