~pcwiz Posted October 2, 2007 Share Posted October 2, 2007 I think you mean the 8139 card, not 8319, anyway, here are some threads that may help: Realtek 8139 ethernet card problems http://forum.insanelymac.com/index.php?showtopic=30282 How-To Solutions for Ethernet Problems http://forum.insanelymac.com/index.php?showtopic=34074 [scroll down to Realtek and read the info for your card] Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
iMaurice Posted October 2, 2007 Author Share Posted October 2, 2007 alright, I got it working rammjet's thread helped though, but I couldn't get the driver to work until now. turns out that osx was trying to use the r1000 driver, and that the applerealtek driver doesn't work, so I removed them and installed that driver and about pci cards showing up in system profiler, I found out that's normal in osx86 I'm on a roll, now I just need to install natit edit: you're right, it's the realtek 8139, typo Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
~pcwiz Posted October 2, 2007 Share Posted October 2, 2007 If you need help with video card setup, feel free to ask. If you have a GeForce card, its recommended that you use Titan drivers, not Natit. If you have a ATI card, you can install Natit and it will work but usually you have to take additional steps to enable QE/CI. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
