I hope so if not how can i create a new admin account with full privileges, i have also uninstalled domain controller but still no luck :< please help me :>

Well, this is a tough one, if you are logged on as an administrator, you should be able to do anything, including installing new hardware... Have you tried restarting in safe mode?

[jonathon123449]

Yes but it still isnt working i have even created a new user account i says the drivers for this device have not been installed?? whats going on BELKIN sucks or microsft does,, help me please!!1

I've done some searching around on Google without much luck... I am not sure what you need to do about this one... Try contacting the network card's manufacturer and see what they suggest, it could be a driver incompatibility

If you uninstalled the domain controller is may have messed up active directory, check through it and make sure you a member of all the relavate admin groups. Are you logged on as the default administrator eg administrator
