    I have 2 IBM a21m 2628-FQU laptops with windows 2000 pro.

    the IBM site has 2 drivers...one intel and one 3com. I've tried to install both repeatedly...and ive done hundreds of drive installs before. what the hell am i missing? lol.

    i set the bios to defaults...then tried changing settings. i tried installing the drivers in sp2 and sp4 with roll-up. any suggestions?

    If these are built in, I would try reinstalling the chip set.
