Numbered NIC in Device Manager
A Network Interface Controller (NIC) built into a
PCChips A31G V:1.0 motherboard was
appearing as a "Sis190 100/10 Ethernet Device #3" in the Windows Device
Manager. I wanted to remove the "#3" from the end of the description.
I tried fixnetwork.vbs, but that didn't work. I tried manually removing
registry entries, but was unsuccessful in resolving the issue that way either.

No MAC Address on SiS190 NIC
I had a problem with a
PCChips
motherboard with a
Silicon Integrated Systems
(SiS) chipset not working because it had all zeros listed for the
MAC address. Fortunately, the MAC, aka Ethernet, address can be changed
through the Windows Device Manager.
