Author Topic: MAC address problem ? Aldo New Member Member # 1049 posted                    Hi I have changed the bios on my k7s41gx lots of times to experiment so I don't know if I lost or not that MAC address that I don't know exactly what is my lan appears to be working fine I can connect to internet very well and even I have made a domestic network with my sister computer that appears to be working fine however, on my local network icon always says that is null or limited. There on options there's a buttons that says: Repair I press that button and after 1 minit or more windows says that can't find the correct ip adress so my question is this? is that a MAC address problem? if not how this can be solved? my config:Athlon xp 2400-winxp sp2,geforce4 ti thanks bye,Aldo Posts: 13 | From: Montevideo-Uruguay | Registered: Nov 2004 bighun1952 New Member Member # 1999 posted                    download the cool bios from guni you will get it here http://www.thelostboy.info/files/bios/k7s41gx/gx210.zip i had the same problem with a k7s8xe board and used guni and honeys bios and got my mac address back cheers bighun1952 Posts: 2 | From: uk | Registered: Aug 2005 bighun1952 New Member Member # 1999 posted                    go to this page and you will get guni`s cool bios for your board http://www.thelostboy.info/ go into the asrock section and scroll down the page and you will get it cheers bighun 1952 Posts: 2 | From: uk | Registered: Aug 2005 guni Platinum Member Member # 148 posted                    Hi guys, Unfortunately, that option is no more available, it caused odd problems... But first, use Everest or Sandra to check if the MAC address is lost (in that case it´s 00-00-00-00). If that´s the case (I doubt it reading your first post), a BIOS flash should solve the problem. Or you can use the eeAMD-SiS.zip utility to get it back. I solved the same problem deleting the existing connection and creating a new one after rebooting -------------------- aka The Lost Boy Sleep all day. Party all night. Never grow old. Never die.

Ussualy the network connection (neighborhood) is the last one to suffer from lost MAC adress, while the internet connection is the first one to suffer. The MAC adress is ussualy used by DHCP to alocate an adress to U and to let U browse the internet(that is if the DHCP server is configured like that). For first I would try to remove the "POWER SAVE" option from the device manager. Also give us some more specs about your LAN/WAN setup.

I have checked on Everest home edition the MAC adress and says: 000B6A716A7B same number is on the sticker on the parallet port on my motherborad so I think that the MAC address is not the problem so it's a OS issue guni, how you have deleted local network? I can't delete it here...I press del on that conecction and says that I must disable it first so.. I have disabled it but still it can't be deleted planoru, I have disabled power save but no changes thanks for all guys Aldo Posts: 13 | From: Montevideo-Uruguay | Registered: Nov 2004
