Network card problem

hi, i update my window xp to window vista business, now vista cannot find my
network card. I was using "Realtek RTL8169/8110 Family Gigabit Ethernet NIC".
I tried downloading new vista driver from realtek, but nothing happened. Main
thing is, vista can not find any network card installed. So, i tried taking
the card out and putting back again, still can't see any hardware changes.
Please help someone.... I read somewhere in the web that pci is an issue on
vista, sometime it doesn't get the card. please help....

thanks

Unfortunately Vista probably does not have driver support for that
older network card. Fortunately, you can buy a new network card for a
few dollars and it will work flawlessly. Thats what I did...

I have the latest driver for the card, but vista doesnot detect my card to
install it. Even if I select from the hardware list and add on my own, it
says windows cannot load driver for this device (code 31). I have tried
installing the card while my computer is on and it gets hanged.

thanka anyway for the response, may be some else will have better solution.

You're beating a dead horse... Vista will not ever recognize that
network card I'm sure as its not Vista rated!!
