    when you bought the pc it should have come with a disc, it would have something like drivers on it, just read the other post about you not having the disk

    What you need is either a XP disk or a system board driver.. to get your connection back.. its so easy my probation officer could do it.. )just kidding)

    Go to Start > Programs > Accessories > System Tools > System Information.
    This will display the System Information tool.

    In the System Summry look for system manufacturer and system model in the right-side pane. Post back what they say and i'll see if i can find a driver for your board
