Try the driver from http://download.gigabyte.eu/FileList/Driver/mb_driver_lan_bigfoot.zip
I have just done a fresh reinstall, and the ethernet driver was still there...I seriously have no idea how it's there. I will give that driver a go.
I am afraid I don't have anything to do that with. I'm starting to think it's an issue with this "ghost driver". I shouldn't have these drivers installed as of right now but yet they still exist.If you have a cheap switch (or a router that you can turn the router bits off on) then try hooking that up in between your PC and the ethernet cable. Sometimes component tolerances do weird things.
Yeah, it'll be that for now, if it fixes the issue I'll then put it under the floorboards again lol.To save yourself getting the floor boards up, just run the new cable directly on the carpet for now until you definitely know its the issue. Just don't trip over it![]()
