I have a GA-EP35-DS3R that I purchased just over a month ago, that I had flashed to the F3b BIOS. I recently opened up my box to reseat the heatsink. When I booted up I noticed a message that said something about invalid checksum, then rebooted. Now, the onboard LAN no longer works.
The LEDs on the onboard LAN light up when I plug in a cable, however the H/W LAN enable/disable BIOS option NO LONGER EXISTS! Also, under SMART LAN, it only lists a greyed out "Virtual Cable Test" that can not be selected.
I've cleared the CMOS, flashed down to F2, flashed back to F3b, nothing seems to bring back the onboard LAN. I know if its not being loaded by the BIOS there's no chance of getting it detected by Windows.
Besides the onboard LAN, everything works. Any advice would be greatly appreciated.
