This bloody card is going to cut from the motherboard of this laptop soon :(
Its a broadcom Netxtreme gigabit one in a Dell D820 laptop.
It will not install any drivers - Comes up with access denied.
It will not delete - This device is required to boot up the computer. Ive hacked the registry to get rid of it, as soon as you boot again its there with the same issue.
It will not go in safe mode - same messages.
It have disabled it in the BIOS and added devmgr_show_nonpresent_devices to the environment variables. Still will not go.
How the hell can windows think that is is relying on a device for startup, when it knows its not there.
Bastard thing. Its not the card - it works fine in Ubuntu :(
