    check reliability of my network card

    I have no wifi. The network card Microsoft 6to4 # 4 has a point of suspension in a triangle. Can I check the reliability of my WiFi card? I have checked that all my drivers are currently up to date. Thank you for your presentation.

    Simply install Aida32 downloaded here: http://www.majorgeeks.com/download181.html
    Aida gives the direct link to the manufacturer's website to download drivers.

    How to verify your Network card is working properly
    Since Windows XP does not support anymore any ISA Non-Plug & Play Network adapters, Windows XP is able to detect automatically the settings/configuration of ISA Plug & Play and PCI network adapters.

    Before using network adapters, I suggest to check that the network adapter has be properly identified and is working.

    In the Control-Panel, select the System icon: (or right-click "My Computer" on the desktop and select Properties)

    Select the tab: "Hardware" and then use in the section "Device Manager" (middle of the dialogbox) the button "Device Manager"

    In the Device-Manager, expand the section for Network Adapters : right-click on your network adapter and select to display the "Properties"

    Tab : General
    Make sure, that the "Device status" is: "This device is working properly".
    if not, use the button "troubleshooting"

    tab: Advanced
    Some network adapters allow to configure the connector to be used (in case of Combo adapters), and whether to use on Twisted Pair (TP) cabling "Full Duplex" (= receive and transmit at the same time) or "Half Duplex" (= receive OR transmit at a given time)

    tab : Driver
    In case that Windows has problems using the driver, you can download from the manufacturer of the network adapter a new driver, which you can use then to "Update"

    Tab: Resources
    Under "Resource Settings", you will see the I/O-range and IRQ used/assigned by this component.

    For PCI network cards, it is not possible to change the resources
    (I/O-range and IRQ ), but for ISA Plug & Play card you can assign different settings (if you need to resolve a resource issue, but that should not be required, this should only be done by real experts )
