No lan

[Psycrow]

I just bought and installed this pc with asus Formula IV rog
And then i installed all the newest drivers..sudenly my internet starts to disconnect..then from here on its only been hell no matter what i did to fix it.

I tryed with a new router from my internet provider and a new cable and i also tested the mentioned gear on a laptop and it worked, so im sure its my PC that ****s me up sideways !

I tryed old an dnew drivers and i tryed to remove the hardware from the manage list and restore old ****.

I cant get the damm LAN to work, I tested the intel 82679V onboard net card with the inbuild diagnose tools.

When i test hardware "net card" then a green light blinks behind the pc were the LAN port is
Also the other tests shows me passed with a green tag for allright status.

I tryed to change the linksped dublex and they only show me this message "not connected, power off"/ Not available no matter what speed i choose.

and yes the net controller is enable in bios..i also did a reset bios today and that dident help

Hey psycrow! Can you use system restore to set your computer back to a time before you started the driver updates. That way you might get connection back....?

[Psycrow]

hmm problem is i cant remember what time and date it happend..all i know is that it worked in the very start when i installed windows and then i downloadet alldrivers and updates for win 7. Then i was playing league of legends game were the internet suddenly started to act strange and disconnect..i tryed to change the duplex to 100 from auto and that worked in a short time..now it WONT detect any LAN cable...

Would it maybe help to reinstall windows again ?

because it seems like the NIC dosent use windows drivers, i must install the lan drivers and chipset from the asus cd before the NIC gets installed on the hardware manage list

IF your gona do clean instal, download drivers and put them on a USB stick if you have one ( unzip and have em in folders )

[Psycrow]

ok ill try clean install now..brb later

if you have a spare hdd whit nothing on you can try instal it on that, just a sugestion.
then you dont have to wipe the one you have now.

Really?----hmmm not good.....maybe try the second BIOS? That board has 2 right? if that doesn't work looks like Ethernet hardware has failed? Have you tried another cable?
