Okay, I'm at work and we're (not computer support) trying to fix a DVX (records cameras like a DVR). We replaced the HDDs and reinstalled Windows 2000. We can't get the driver to load for the ethernet. It says it's missing file e100b325.sys, which I thought was actually for XP. So we downloaded the file, extracted it and tried to load it. When we try to load, it says Windows found a closer match (don't remember the file name), and tries to load it instead, with no sucess. Any ideas? Sorry if I didn't give enough info. Thanks in advance.
This is an NDIS driver. Go to Control Panel->System->Device Manager->Ethernet and click properties. Select Update Driver and select the downloaded driver. It should have a .INF file with it, probably e100b325.INF.

-Since half the questions here involve media problems, here ya go: Only use Verbatim or Taiyo-Yuden discs (get your TYs from Rima.com, not Supermediastore or meritline). Forget the rest, no matter what "brand" they sell under. Always burn at 4x speed regardless of the speed rating of this discs or your drive. If you have burn problems with these then you have to update your drive's firmware. For double-layer discs, only use Verbatim DVD+R DL and burn them at 2.4x speed.
Thanks for the reply. Yeah, we tried that, and it wouldn't install the driver. But, we got it fixed, it was supposed to be running XP but it didn't load the first time we put the OS on, it loaded 2000 instead. However, the second time, it loaded XP Embedded. Ever heard of it? Aparently it's XP embedded into the HDD, and from what I understand, you can't formatt it off the drive. These are brand new HDDs, out of the box; sealed. Kind of strange, I didn't know they did that. I guess they only do it for large corporations. I hope I'm making some sence here.
According to the instructions, you may need to load E100bnt5.sys instead. If nothing is showing up in your Networks panel, try uninstalling whatever Ethernet drivers are installed, do some reboots, and then try this driver download.

@ Dunker
Read above, we already fixed it. Thanks for the reply, though. To answer you questions; yes, it showed the ethernet device and yes, we tried installing E100bnt5.sys. We eventually were able to install XP and everything is good now. Thanks again.
