So I got my new PC today and I installed Windows Server 2019 since it was free for me as a student.However now I'm stuck at installing ethernet controller driver. I've got Intel 82573 Gigabit Ethernet Controller and there is no driver available for windows server 2019 (not even Windows 10) on intel official website. Does that mean I either need a new ethernet controller either new OS or is there another option maybe ? Also worth mentioning, I haven't noticed that my internet cable wasn't plugged until after the installation of the OS. Was that a mistake ? Maybe if I was installing Windows Server while having it plugged in, it would recognize the device and automatically install the drivers needed ?

I'd check that the pc or mobo manufacturer chipset has been installed. The chipset allows the operating system to find and use devices integrated into the mother board.

It has been installed, unfortunately I guess.
Sounds good, yes, strange that it also cannot run windows 10. What pc or mobo is used?
--please don't forget to Accept as answer if the reply is helpful--
Mobo: Intel H410 Chipset
Proc: i5 10400F
Maybe this one but not sure with limited info.

Thanks for help. I will try it out tomorrow for sure since it's getting late. And what do you mean by limited info? I'm sorry if you needed the full pc spec since I'm not really into hardware so I don't really know what I should say.
Sounds good, you're welcome.
