    Hello all,

    I'm having issues with two 1400 vostros, one with xp installed, and the other with vista installed - they both cannot connect to the internet via my network switch. Other computers are able to connect though, so I've narrowed the problem down to having to do with the vosotros. I've also noticed that the "network controllers" aren't installed on the xp machine. I have tried installing the latest drivers for the network adaptor on both laptops to no avail and even reformatted both laptops. I was wondering if anyone else had the same issue or knew of any workaround for my problem.

    Thanks.

    Have you tried connecting them to other networks?
