Well I am gonna ask the obvious question as you dont explain, but have you uninstalled the Network driver in Device Manager, rebooted and let windows find the Network adaptor again? Got the latest drivers from the manufacturers website?

Can you give us the make of the Network card please. Look in device manager and copy what it says here or if its not showing up try a diagnostic program like Everest or SiSoftSandra, or if youve still got the motherboard box or whatever then see what it says on that, thanks.

OK, heres the Asus driver site for your Motherboard. Take a scan through the list and download what you need, then install and post back if it solves anything.

Might be an idea, while you are there, to make sure your Bios is uptodate as well, but thats another story. First things first!

The nic driver should be in the chipset driver package ;)

Try going the the nvidia site downloads section and click the detect hardware bit near the bottom, it should then give you an up-to-date chipset/nic driver.
