Hi everyone. Lately my brothers computer hasn't been able to access the internet which is odd because it has been able to in the past. Whenever we start up his computer it asks us to install the PCI Simple Communications Controller which we can't seem to find anywhere. If we just ignore the message and try to connect to the internet it won't let us on. His computer has a Pentium 3 processor and is running Windows 2000. We tried to find the driver off of the Windows 2000 CD but with no luck. Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated.

have you been into device manager to see if there is a yellow? against it if there is then see if that has been disabled or running properly.

Now installed Microsoft Security Essencials on my Tower with Windows Home Premium 32bit and Toshiba Satellite Pro Laptop with Windows Home Premium 64bit

If you can, use the FCC ID number which should be printed somewhere on the device to look up the manufacturer here:
