Win 7 cannot detect wired network on pc, but internet can be used

Win 7 Ultimate 64bit, dual ssd's (120g) in raid. Connected to router, router connected to modem.
When I put curser on network icon it says "no connections available" I checked for drivers and they are fine. Both device (onboard) and drivers are fine. I removed and re-installed drivers, but same. i can connect to internet and surf fine, but some programs i have will not launch simply because i believe it detects first if i am on network or not and since windows cant detect network, these programs wont launch. I have already flashed the bios, re-installed chipset and changed net cable. I also bypassed the router straight to moden. When i try to run win network troubleshooter, it says the same "no network to troubleshoot".
Dont know wat else, any thoughts?

If you can post a screen shot of the ipconfig/all from this machine it would be most helpful. :)

The only thing I can find for no network connections showing is in the link below. It shows the registry as being the problem with one adjustment required to fix it.

Solution for an empty “Network Connections” in Windows | Technology for Mortals

just tried that. I deleted the values in the config, still the same after reboot.

From the ipconfig you should be online so it appears as if something is blocking the connection.

Which A/V software do you have installed on this system?

Sry chev, i was away. At the moment i do not have an a/v installed. I had uninstalled it to see if that was the issue. Like i said before, i can surf the web in this state, but my network icon (taskbar) says no network and it is crossed out.

Intermittent connection problems aren't so easy to fix and I don't see anything wrong with the ipconfig. Do you have iTunes installed on this system?

Maybe it's time to reset the network stack and flush the DNS.

Save the file below, unzip and run the file, your machine will reboot automatically.
