Unique Problem Ethernet cable Not plugged in
Ok i recently installed from win xp home 32 bit, to win 7 proffessional 64 bit (i reformatted) and after installing all my drivers i notice that the internet is listed as disconnected, i try the troubleshoot option, and it tells me that my ethernet cable is not plugged in properly/broken. now the cable i am positive that it is fine, except the plastic clip is unattached, but the my internet worked fine before my install of win 7. the hardware manager states that my inter card is working properly. i have the win 7 64 bit drivers so i am not sure as to why my computer does not let me have internet on either of my cards. my Motherbboard is Intel DG35EC. This is frustrating because this is a unique problem as far as i can tell, and while my NICs may be a few years old, they worked on xp. any help would be greatly apprecieated, I have been to 2 forums already and both have drawn a blank.
thanks in advance, Ben
