    Existing ndis2 driver error

    I've just encountered this problem and I do not know how to solve it. I would appreciate any help provided. Thank you.

    I'm using Windows98SE with 128mb RAM running on Intel 3 processor.

    The problem that I have is that ever since i tried to update my driver, it has been having the yellow exclamation mark. THe device in question is my network adapter; my existing ndis2 driver.



    I proceeded as follows



    I clicked on update driver..



    Chose an option



    Then , i did this.



    They found one, so i just clicked ok..



    after copying..



    Then the option came for me to restart my computer. I restarted, but when I went back to control panel > system > I still see the same yellow exclamation mark on my existing ndis2 driver. I've repeated the above process many times but each time I get the same result.


    Also, I don't know if this is any useful, but ever since i got this problem, I cannot play any games at all, no matter if it's an online game or a pc game. Whenever I open any game application, i get a blue screen and I'm in safe mode. Is the problem related?

    Welcome to Windrivers pongo.
    I'd try removing the existing Ndis2 driver and go to http://www.network-drivers.com/companies/225.htm and download the specific driver for your CNet adapter and install it.

    Thank you for the welcome

    I did as advised. I removed the Existing Ndis2 driver from the "network adapters" in the Control Panel. After removing it, i now have 3 adapters under this "network adapter" heading.

    1. CNet Pro200 PCI Fast Ethernet Adapter
    2. Dial-up Adapter
    3. iVasion PoET Adapter

    Are these sufficient? Do I have to install Ndis2 driver? What does Ndis2 driver do? Windows didn't detect any new hardware, so I suppose Ndis2 driver is not detected?

    Also, I am able to open game applications now, without the computer crashing. However, the game lags but the graphic and sound are otherwise still the same, i.e. unaffected. It's just the lag. Is this because I removed the Ndis2 driver?
