Yes, I got that info from the PCI database. The complete description from Properties is PCI\VEN_14E4&DEV_1673&SUBSYS_01FE1028&REV_02\4&1E93A591&0&00E5. Does this answer your question?
 
when you go to device manager and look at properties there is a driver tab that will give you the version, please get me the version number and did any of the other links work, did uninstalling and rebooting help?

---------------------

I am beginning to believe that you might have your pc scanned by one of the driver sites, such as slim utilities or from one of the links in my last reply and see what driver may be needed for your ethernet connection. just be careful of these sites, some are just come-ons to pay for the drivers.

this is the first time I have not been able to get all the drivers needed for a dell, their website is usually first rate, I have a d800 latitude with a firewire also and the (R107518) is the broadcam ethernet controller driver

it is for a d800 not a d830 but you might try it if the other 2 from before did not work

What is your bios version and is it at the latest version??

Under Ethernet Controller Properties, Driver - Driver Provider - Unknown / Driver date - Not Available / Driver version - Not Available / Digital Signer - Not Digitally signed.

It looks like my BIOS is Dell Inc., A11, 4/3/2008, SMBIOS verision 2.4

Here are some other codes that come on when I first boot up:
Broadcom UNDI PXE-2.1 v10.0.9
Copyright (C) 2000-2006 Broadcom Corporation
Copyright (C) 1997-2000 Intel Corporation

CLIENT MAC ADDR: 00 21 70 67 7D 36GUID: 44454CC 5A00 104A 8057 C7C04F4D4731
PXE-E53: No Boot filename received

PXE-M0F: Exiting Broadcom PXE ROM

read through the above thread, and is there some setting that needs to be disabled, such as a boot from lan??

--------
your bios is out of date

http://www.dell.com/support/home/us/en/19/Drivers/DriversDetails?driverId=R206196

read the instructions on the above page to install the update.

http://www.dell.com/support/home/us/en/19/product-support/servicetag/gzjwmg1/drivers

the first link is A14, the second link shows A17 listed under bios for your service tag

update and let me know if the errors still persist.

did any of the driver links I have given you work??

I admit I am a bit uneasy about updating the bios based on other things I have read about frying the motherboard after trying a bios update. I have a Dell Dimension 3000 with an even older bios - A02 (11/8/04) and a network adaptor dated 2/10/04 that boots right up.

With your help, I do have internet access through wi-fi, I do have the most recent version of XP with SP3, and I have a working DVD player. Getting the Ethernet Controller fixed is more of a personal challenge than that I really need it to operate the computer. Is the error code PXE-E53 ("No Boot File name received) a clue as to where the problem is hiding? Could there be some drivers installed that should be removed?
