GSS 2.5 Realtek RTL8169/8110 Family Gigabit Ethernet NIC detection issues
Sep 5th, 2008 at 11:24am
 
I get the error "No Ethernet pci Adapter found! Driver not loaded. Serious internal error" when I tried to boot from the boot disk that I've created with ghost boot wizard.

From Ghost boot wizard i select network package and then select the realtek 8169 nic...I've tried both pcdos and msdos but to no avail i get the same error. Anyone have problems with realtek nics?

This is the same problem discussed here, which incidentally is still on the front page of the forum. You can't just use an adapter for any device in the family, you need to identify which exact device you have and use the right driver for it (probably a 8101E).

hmm.. even though windows is saying in device manager that the nic is a RTL8169/8110 its not really a RTL8169? How do I identify what device it is in the family? Cuz when i look in my mb specifications it says RTL8169/8110 as well....

Nope, it's an 8110 or 8101. Different member of the "family", which use the same drivers in Windows but different DOS drivers.

That's covered in the thread I linked.
