Hi
How do you connect to broadband? Do you have a modem/router.
All the message is saying is that you have an ethernet network card, and its not being used. If you go into Control Panel, System, Device Manager and look down until you see "Network Adapter" and you should have a card listed there.
If you don't use your network card, you can disable it in the BIOS.
Its nothing to worry about.0 -
I wouldn't disable it in the bios
just go to network connections from either the start button or control panel
find the Local Area Connection right click and disable from there
that way you won't forget if it were disabled in the bios0 -
