I had to reinstall windows on my hard drive. I wanted a fresh install so I formated the drive. Well now I can't find the diver needed for my Ethernet card.
"What brand is it?" You may ask. Well I don't know. It is built into my mother board with is an Aopen brand. I don't have the software that came with it.
The device manager just shows "Ethernet controller" with a big yellow question mark out beside it.
Is there a way to detect the Ethernet controller brand/model?

Go to the Aopen web site go into the support area find the downloads page for your motherboard and the drivers for all the integrated components are all there including the onboard network.

did you reinstall your motherboard drivers as well? the best thing to do would be to go the motherboard's website and download the drivers for it (in case you don't have the installation cd that came with it anymore).

Contact the maker of the mother board unless you can find the information you need from the mother board maker's website.
