|
|
Hey all,
Windows 7 will not connect to the internet, so I reformatted and installed again and it still will not connect. I am using a live linux distro cd, and am able to connect online with the same computer.
I get the error: Quote: | The RealTek Network Adapter/Controller was not found.
If Deep Sleep Mode enabled Please Plug the Cable |
I have tried:
- Unplugging everything, turning it off, waiting, plugging it all in and rebooting.
- Reinstalling the driver (that came with my mobo cd) multiple times.
I followed everything on this and it hasn't worked.
Also my specs, which are not too important as people with different setups encounter the same error as me.
Suggestions?
Thanks in advance.

Did you check BIOS and make sure the ethernet port isn't disabled there?
Also read that a guy fixed his by rolling back from a windows update that gave an update to... "PCI upstream switch port"
Quote: | So i fixed this issue on my system... by rolling back a windows update that updated the driver for my PCI upstream switch port under system devices.. just searched trhough all my devices in device manager and found the ones that were dated the time i did the update and rolled them back and this was the one that fixed it |
but you've already formatted, so perhaps it's a BIOS update issue? see if theres any different versions of BIOS you could install for your motherboard.

It found it immediately on my hard drive.
Very strange to me.
