THE NEW LAN CARD I WANT TO INSTALL ON THE PCI SLOT DOES NOT SHOW CONNECTIVITY EVEN AFTER PROPER DRIVER INSTALATION AND IT SELF PINGS TOO BUT DOES NOT PING THE GATEWAY

Re-boot your computer and enter the bios (press delete on restart), and disable the onboard LAN then reboot your system and try again

1) Not a question.
2) Be specific.
3) DON'T USE ALL CAPS. Follow standard English grammar, or post somewhere else which uses the same language. (See the RFC for Internet Etiquette: RFC 1855: "Netiquette Guidelines".)
4) Physically install the network adapter. What IP address were you trying to use? I would recommend using one of the private ranges; most commonly, 10.x.x.x and 192.168.x.x. Alternately, you can use the Autoconf range by leaving it as default. Did you make sure you are using the right type of cable, switch/hub/router/gateway? Are you connecting the same link-layer network types? Ethernet to Ethernet--not Ethernet to Tokenring or Ethernet to ATM. Make sure you assign one IP address per network adapter. Is your IP stack working? Try "ping localhost" and "ping 127.0.0.1". "Self pings" doesn't tell me anything; be specific.
If you didn't even do simple diagnostics, it's probably not a good idea for you to do the installation. Get an expert.

on the back of the pc there must be a connector like a larger version of the sq. modem or telephone socket. additionally actual click my pc, click homes then hardware and gadget supervisor. decrease than this this is going to likely be shown as a community card. If not they are fairly much less costly, you will ought to load the drivers from the disk presented with it and then in high quality condition the cardboard.

try disabling the other lan card either by going into the computer's bios & disabling it or go to the network connection window, right click on the icon for the internal lan card & disable it. so any dhcp server would only be able to see the external lan card & assign ip to it or you can force one on it. good luck!

check the media, ie the cable and the crimping.
if its self pinging then it self states that the drivers are installed safely, just in case, check the device manager. right click on ur mycomputer manage> in device manager locate network adpaters> check if the adapter is present there and there is no red or yellow color on it.
