  • Onboard lan not working

    In the morning i decided to clean out the dust from my system.i cleaned out the case took out the gpu and put it back together.Upon booting up into windows it said i didnt have internet connection

    For some reason the onboard lan is no longer listed in my device manager.ive tried reinstalling the realtek drivers but it fails to install saying it isnt detected and says "The RealTek Network Adapter/Controller was not found. If Deep Sleep Mode enabled Please Plug the Cable". The Ethernet cable is plugged in i dont why it says that. Ive tried a system restore, reformatting, clearing CMOS and its still missing in my device manager.Researching this problem on google showed that others have had this problem before but with no actual solution.I ended up buying a pci ethernet card to get internet working again.Is there any way to fix this?Just what could have caused this?

      In the BIOS, on the MAIN page, do you see a MAC address listed for your LAN's when you press F9?

      If not, then you may have damaged the board when you removed it from your case, or have a short somewhere near the LAN. You will need to remove it again and check for any damage, and start the system on a wooden table or cardboard box, then see if you again have LAN or not.

      If you do not see LAN MAC address on the system info (F9 Main Page of BIOS) as mentioned above, then you may have one of the above mentioned issues, damage or short. If this happened due to a new BIOS, as said above please flash back to a previous one with Qflash, and be sure you disable KEEP DMI Data
