Find your application cd roms and load the first one. From there, install the following drivers:

J2157B FDDI
J2250B Token Ring
J2759BA HP-PB 100Baset card

It looks like you're missing the drivers associated with your LAN cards.. With the application CD, just install the appropriate softwares.

HI,

I'm having this very same problem with my K490 box. I can't seem to find my app. cd.
By any chance, does HP have a website where I can download the software/drivers for my NIC? What would the software/driver for the NIC be called?
Thanks in advance,

You may get drivers on this link

This is certainly a driver problem. If the card was dead it would not show up or there would be a NO_HW message.

Just in case you suspected the card was bad.

Dan, if you cannot find your app cd roms, open a call with the response center. There isn't yet a website where you can download NIC drivers.

Thanks, I knew that it wasn't a problem with the lan harware but infact a problem with the driver/software. I am calling HP right now to see if they can ship me the app. cd media.
Thanks again for your help guys!

It was beautiful; got my app. cd and inserted the first cd.
Used swinstall to load the software/drivers for the HP HP-PB 100 Base TX card.
Here is the output
ioscan -fnC lan

Thanks again guys.
