A little problem with my PC has me stumped.
I have just got back from a LAN at the weekend. Before going to the LAN I re-formatted (as I needed to anyway) but also to finally go legit.....yeah bad I know :\
Everything was working before I went to the LAN and everything was working before I packed up and left the LAN. On arriving home I unpacked the car but left the PC sitting overnight as I was kinda tired...plug it all in the following day and no network
The error in question (so says Windows) is that the network cable is unplugged. Both my machine, the router and all interconnects in between some to be working fine.
I have tried re-installing the drivers (nForce), different cables, another reformat and I am about to try and connect the machine in a different place altogether as well.
I have also tried to use an old 3Com network card which Windows thinks is a wireless card
I'm pretty much out of ideas on how to fix this now and could really use a few pointers.
I'm using a DFI Ultra-D mobo (NF4 chipset) and using the 6.86 nForce drivers however non of the lights on the network ports flash which leads me to think some sort of hardware failure.
Any thoughts?
