so i just finshed building my rig and installed xp. i connected my ethernet cable to the lan port, got a green light on the posrt, figured it was a good sign. i now cant figure out how to setup my connection. does it have to do with bios settings?pleasde help quick
 
that dont mean nothing. Your LAN link should be solid and so should your WAN link. Is this true?
 
i have no idea what u r talking about, can someone help me with getting my connection set up please
 
Are you talking about your router/modem or the network card that has a green light? I was talking about the router/modem. Go to start, run, type cmd

type in

ipconfig /release

ipconfig /renew

then see what happens
 
im not sure how i can tell., im in the printers and other hardware section but when i click phone and modem options it doesnt detect any modem for me
 
go to control panel, system, hardware, device manager. Look for network adapters, network connections or something similar. You dont need the modem as you are not on dial up but dsl/cable. Do you see an X or exclamation point?
