R500 LAN drivers for XP.

[nvspratap]

Hi every one, I bought a ThinkPad R500 2714 last month. It came with Vista, I downgraded my vista to xp. I installed all the drivers including "Intel PRO/1000 LAN adapter" this was downloaded from the following link http://www-307.ibm.com/pc/support/site.wss/MIGR-70316.html

There is no prob with the instalation but I can't see any LAN connection in the taskbar or in my network connections list. I want to connnect to internet through LAN but it is not possible. Please give me necessary drivers to solve this problem..............

Downloading the driver is just the first part of the process. After that, you must go into C>Drivers>Win>Ethernet and run the setup file from there.

Hope this helps.
