This review is from: Intel Gigabit CT PCI-E Network Adapter EXPI9301CTBLK (bulk) (Personal Computers)

Needing a gig card for my new Windows 7 PC, I purchased the cheaper StarTech.com 1 Port PCI Express Gigabit Ethernet NIC Network Adapter Card (ST1000SPEX). I just needed a cheap pcie gig card and this one seemed to be perfect. However after several hours troubleshooting on my machine, I could not get this to work. The card worked fine in my older XP machine, so I know the card was fine, but for some reason I was getting error messages in Device Manager on the Windows 7 machine. I spoke with support, who was somewhat helpful, but could not help me to get it working. I think that the problem is with Windows 7 machines with Realtek drivers already installed for onboard LAN.

After about 4 hours of trying to get it to work, I decided to pay a little more and hope this Intel card would work. Sure enough, Windows 7 immediately recognized and installed it with absolutely no problems! If you need a pci-e gigabit card, this is the one to get!

I would love to know why I had to buy a network card for my new PC when one is built in that is not compatible with Windows 7 that it came with. Either way this card is awesome. I moved it to my other PC and it is noticeably faster than the built in jack on that one. Needless to say I have another one coming. Well worth the money and 10 minutes to install.

I used this to replace an existing network card in an old computer. There were no Windows 7 drivers available for the old network cards (that I could find), and I couldn't use windows update to find any, because I couldn't connect to the network. I've never had any problems with Intel network cards (I've installed them in 10+ computers over the last 15 years or so). Just pop them in, and windows recognizes them straight away.
