Sharp Posted June 8, 2005 Posted June 8, 2005 Hello, Well the PCI NIC is totally independant from the nvidia NIC/FW so your problem lies somewhere else. How are you connecting to the inet? Did the connection ever work? Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Eagle_Eye Posted June 9, 2005 Posted June 9, 2005 well i was connected for about 1/2 hour everything worked flawlessly... updated video drivers was okay updated motherboard drivers asked if i wanted to install firewall? sure why not never seen it before.. rebooted starting having pop-ups at bottom left hand side to allow 1st pop-up showed okay 2n pop-up was all grey click on area were previously said allow 3rd pop-up disapeared on my and since then lost connection tried the fallowing.. went to localhost nothing out of the ordinary tried disableling nvidia firewall on top of windows firewall i'm behind a router so i'm okay there. tried disableing both marvel and nvidia nic from bios installed dlink pci nic, was functional in previous system. just not getting an ip ugh... i also tried a registry fix went and did the fallowing witch fully resets a stack regedit hkey_local_machinesystemCurrentControlSetServices deleted both winsocks rebooted controle pannel network connection properties of nic install protocal add have disk c:windowsinf double clicked tcp ok close reboot still no internet re-loaded windows on top of windows to repair current instalation Yet even though i un-installed lan monitoring and firewall during instalation i had a pop-up from the firewall. Stated that some of it's components are not installed correctly and may not perform wright... now i'm gona try the fallowing... gona try and re-install same verision of forceware from a burnt cd from a diffrent computer. gona try sfc /scanall see if i can get back online at least ugh....

Sharp Posted June 9, 2005 Posted June 9, 2005 Hello, If all fails go for a full reinstall +quick format (do not use repair function). And the Firewall has been known to casue problems for some users. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Prostock62 Posted June 9, 2005 Posted June 9, 2005 Eagle_Eye if you do a fresh install choose not to install the nvidia firewall,it may help your problem.I never load it because i have connections issues also. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Eagle_Eye Posted June 9, 2005 Posted June 9, 2005 darn i only wish i did that now... gona re-try loading drivers tonight and see if there is a way to disable the puppy... yet i suspect i might have that unavoidable problem were it's not un-installing and must needed to be un-installed before re-installing.. isn't there any registry keys?? i might as well try terminal mode with the internal router cause web based seem's to blow.. but i'm really trying to avoid a format and re-install...

Eagle_Eye Posted June 10, 2005 Posted June 10, 2005 well so far i got a little program on disk witch is a drivercleaner.net crossing my finger's i can get it out of there he he he and if she blue screen's on me i'll just reload on top. crossing my finguers and if it work's i'll post the solution for sure... If not it's going to be a painfull task to reboot in safe mode and manually delete .sys, .dll and other nvidia files that are realated to NAM.

Eagle_Eye Posted June 14, 2005 Posted June 14, 2005 well driver cleaner didn't help at all.... had to even re-install windows from scratch at one point... any how i'm online!! Solution: I disconnected ma linksys router connected the modem directly to the pc. Created a broadband connection (isp usses pppoe) now i'm online... but i really want to connect back to ma router bad!! Yet i have noticed every 3 seconds i get a burst of 50% cpu usage?? this ain't normal!! any one got a fix yet? Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sharp Posted June 14, 2005 Posted June 14, 2005 Hello, ctrl-alt-del Process TAB What process is going up to 50% all the time. So now if you plug it back into the router what happens? Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Eagle_Eye Posted June 14, 2005 Posted June 14, 2005 before i can plug it into the router i have to go to bios genie settings mac NV add the mac address then plug it in to the router. I suspect this is reason why i wasn't getting an ip from my router. Then the 2 process that are giving me the head ackes are the nSvIp.exe and th Nlog when i kill both of theese my processor usage is goners. I'm hoping my findings can help other users!

racinjimy Posted June 14, 2005 Posted June 14, 2005 well then you still have the firewall installed I think............................... the nSvcIp is part of the firewall and if you notice it will start to become a memory hog over a few days on a fresh boot the thing uses <10000K after a few days it is around 80000K have you gone into the firewall through the web interface and disabled it? address: http://localhost:3476/cgi-bin/ncgir.exe?menu/index.html Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Eagle_Eye Posted June 15, 2005 Posted June 15, 2005 Yeah i defenetivly noticed the increase of memory usage ugh... i did think it was from firewall, before i remove it i would rather be behind router 1st. then un-install it or disable it all together.. most likely i'll plug in that mac address tonight.
