I downloaded the drivers from nVidia and followed their instructions for installing them... tar -xvzf *gz (since I didn't want to type in the rather lengthy file name) cd nforce make make install make and make install gave me errors which can be seen in these to screen photos (figured this was better than trying to write them down. make http://webpages.charter.net/scarletdown/Misc/nforce-error-0.JPG make install http://webpages.charter.net/scarletdown/Misc/nforce-error-1.JPG Any ideas what is wrong here? As for forcedeth, is that only for the Ethernet drivers (both 3Com and nVidia I presume), or does it install drivers for all the nForce features? If it is only for the Ethernet adapters, then it doesn't seem like there would be any point in me using them since I would need the nVidia Unified drivers anyway for everything else. Also, where would I download forcedeth and how do I install it? __________________________________ Do you Yahoo!? Protect your identity with Yahoo!
