There is an onboard NIC. This is the one that I would like to get working
although PCI NICs give the same errors.

Please explain the question regarding enumeration?

The NIC does appear in the Network Adapters category with a yellow
exclamation and the correct driver is loaded. "Device status This device is
not configured correctly (Code 1). To reinstall the drivers for this device,
click Reinstall Driver"

I have done the inplace upgrade, but it fails on 20 files which I have to
skip...there is no problem with the CD.
Failed files...
hypertrm.dl_; mswrd6.wpc; icwconn2.ex_; inetwiz.ex_; icwhelp.dll;
icwconn.dll; icwutil.dll; icwrmind.exe; icwdll.dll; icx25a.dun etc

Registry Cleaner(s) ? - That may become a decision you'll come to
regret. Which PCI slot are you installing the NIC into >? When the
device is enumerated what specific error code is shown ? Does the
NIC appear in the Network adapters category of Device Manager
with a yellow exclamation symbol preceding the entry or does it end
up in the "Other" devices category.

If you have a XP installation CD your best solution may be a Repair
or "In-Place" upgrade of XP. Prior to doing that I'd restore any of the
Registry backups that the cleaners made. Before doing a XP repair
install it's always a good idea to ensure your current setup is imaged
or at the minimum have your personal data backed up.

I have a PC with Windows XP Media Center installed. I cannot install any
network adapters (tried several differnet brands). I get an error "Cannot
install this hardware" & "The system cannot find the file specified". I
have done a reinstall, and the reinstall cannot find some of the files
(mostly network related: hypertrm.dl_; icwconn2.ex_...about 20 altogether)
on the CD. I can see the files on the CD, but I believe that the incorrect
versions have been installed previously. I cannot find any versions that
the installation will accept. I can finish the reinstall by skipping these
files. When I run a sfc /scannow, it also cannot find the correct files on
the CD.

I have tried removing all of the adapters (including the hidden ones in
safe mode). I have run registry cleaners. I have reset the permissions in
the registry, and I have reset the local security policy.

I am trying to avoid a format & reinstall because of the software on the
PC.

Is there anyway that I can rewrite the networking related components of
the operating system?
