    Do you think getting a new network card will resolve the problem?

    I was going to suggest that but first I wanted to install the drivers first . If you do go that route which will fix the issue if the drivers don't . Disable the LAN inside the bios .

    Lets try this

    Turn off your PC . Unplug the power cord from the back of your PC . Open up the case .
       Warning
    Touch something metal in the case
    remove ALL of the RAM sticks for at least 10 means . After the ten minutes are up install the RAM again . Close the case . Plug the power cable back in . Turn on the PC . Once you're inside Windows see if your internal LAN is found .

    Then do these steps

    Open Device Manager by:
    • Click on the button
    • Type Device Manager inside press [ENTER]


    Open Network Controller properties by:
    • Double-click Network adapters to expand it
    • Double-click the Realtek Network Controller


    Turn off Deep Sleep mode by:
    • Choose the Power Management tab
    • Uncheck “Allow the computer to turn off this device to save power

    At the command prompt, type "Set devmgr_show_nonpresent_devices=1" (without quotes, not caps required). Tell me if it looks like the following, where it says "Network Card" instead of the device name/manufacturer. My onboard just went out to lunch, and the add-on would not properly detect. All it said was Ethernet Controller (as is greyed out.) Also, nothing else was listed on the list. And for some reason, I'm showing a battery that I don't have. It didn't matter what network card or drivers were placed in, I didn't get any further. I found somewhere how to put in the RAS Async adapter, of which is Required. If that is for some reason missing, windows 7 will not go any further. All active devices I had to manually key in, by looking at .inf files, and comparing them to a known functioning computer (lucky for me, the same make/model). There are still issues with my registry (can't install a dial-up or VPN), however, right now I don't need them. Using the hard-drive from the sister computer (same o/s) showed the system should function properly. I don't advise going in the registry unless you know what you are doing, and have a back-up, especially of the areas you are working in. If you need further help, let me know and I'll walk you through what I did.
