I would recommend trying somewhere that knows something about Windows.
www.experts-exchange.com has a Windows forum that would probably know
something about your network card.

As for me, the last version of Windows I bought was Windows 98 (and I
plan on keeping it that way)! :) 

HTH,
Jacob

Broadcom BCM5751 Gigabit Ethernet

2005-05-27 Thread Fafa Hafiz Krantz

Hello!

I got this Broadcom BCM5751 network interface that works just great in FreeBSD.
I was just wondering though, does anybody know where to find its Windows XP 
driver?

I need it to function in both sceneries.

I found an EXE on an Asus.com mirror, but it was some sort of floppy extractor 
and
not really the actual driver, or so it seemed, that I was looking for. I ain't 
got no floppies
anyway, they're all corrupt ;-)

Thanks!

Since you're not a software expert, playing around with the source
code will be more work than it's worth.  If you upgrade to 5.4, you
will probably get the changes you need automatically.

">Answering (maybe) my own question, it looks like the
changes to miidevs

"

but im not sure what the person meant by pulling it in
from HEAD.
