Im pretty stupid when it comes to things about computers.
i know a little bit but this is just beyond me i dont know if its a hardware problem software problem or what.

But i reformatted and reinstalled Windows xp Home SP2 due to virus problem, sumhow got a virus and it $#@^#@ over my computer and i wasnt able to access internet, download nearly anything, or even system restore... so i reinstalled the windows and thought that i will just start all over again,

but wen i tried to set up internet nothing would work...still... i went to device manager and said that everything was working except: Ethernet Controller, Multimedia Audio Controller, RAID Controller, RAID Controller.

They all show yellow bubble with exclamation mark in them and i try update, reinstall and watever but i cant cause no internet... i have no othr CDs other than the windows xp home SP2 disk.

i know my computer works with my internet cause it was working... before the virus.
i dont know much about the desktop because my dad is the person who gave it to me and always messed with it.

You're going to have to download the drivers for a few things. What is the make and model of your computer?

You'll probably have to download them from another computer and via flash drive, CD, floppy, etc, put them on that computer and install.

Yep your going to have to know what kind of mother board you have then go straight to their site and get lan drivers/chipset/any other important ones you can find.

You can find out what mobo you have by either looking at the markings on the board, or with a utility like Cpu-Z. Or if you have a model with a service tag number visit that manufacturer site type in your service tag and it should supply you with the correct dowloads for you system. Best of luck if you have trouble post back some system info and I will try to assist you in finding the correct drivers.
