    PART ONE shows the 'other devices' tab which my device manager does not have. I cannot find 'ethernet controller' under any of the tabs. Is there an alternative?

    Go to Realtek . Download the first one of the list.

    Download it on your desktop. Then Unzip it.

    Now Open Device manager. Expand Network Adapters. Right click on Realtek. Select Update Driver Software.

    OK, now observe the situation for a couple of days, then report us back.

    Thank you for your help. I have had no problems or BSOD's in the past few days so I assume it is in order.
