I can't get Windows 7 to detect my audio and etherent devices. I've tried everything and when it tries to update any devices it cant because it cant connect to the internet. Help?

If you know what NIC is build in your system, you should manually download the drivers on another system and install them on your Windows 7 system. You can also ad another NIC to the system and use that to download the drivers. If you are lucky Windows Update will find them for you. Usually Windows Update will also find the audio drivers.Ray
