Hey all, I got this motherboard (from OCUK), it arrived today and I had a friend help me build it. Installed Windows 7 Ultimate 64-bit. Everything seems to be working, apart from the on board LAN.
Checked that it's enabled in the BIOS, installed the drivers from the disk that came with the motherboard - no luck. Installed the latest drivers from the Realtek website - still no luck.
Don't think it's the port that's dodgy, it's lighting up when the cable is plugged in, and the light on router for it is green too (most of the time; sometimes it goes red)
Any ideas what I can try? Only thing I haven't done is update the BIOS to the newest. (Got F3 installed, newest is F5). Not sure how I'd do that though, and I don't want to break the motherboard!
Thanks in advance for any help. Had been really excited about it, but with it not working it's ruined it a bit at the moment.
