HELP!!! FC6 Installation Issues

Hi,

I'm fairly new to the linux environment and choosen Fedora as my distro. I've just refomatted my Hard drive to install FC6. Prior to FC6 I had FC5 which worked ok with my hardware but with FC6 I've not been able tio use my ethernet card. When I use the network admin wizard to activate eth0 the error says cannot start forcedeth.c. Motherboard is a MSI k7n2 Delta-L Platinum series with Nvidia2 chipset. I've checked Nvidia's website for a driver but the same forcedeth.c driver is listed on their download page.

Also, I have a sound blaster 5.1 card but htis isn't working in FC6. I will appreciate any assistance given to resolve this.

Your hardware should work ( without any setup )

I have recently helped a friend with the same mobo to migrate from FC5 to F7 and there was no issues with LAN.
I also run a sound blaster 5.1 with no issue.
