"Windows did not detect any Networking Hardware" after new Hard drive
I apologize but having searched other threads on the same subject and having no luck I think I need to describe my problem specifically.
I had a hard drive failure so just fitted a new WD internal drive to my desktop and freshly installed Win 7 Pro, 64Bit. It can't connect to a network and states "Windows did not detect any Networking Hardware". I've looked in the system info and can seeWAN Miniport (SSTP) listed among other things under network adapter. Is one of them it? It seems to have an associated driver listed but it's obviously not working.
I've spent the last two hours at least searching for an answer to this but hope someone here can now help. I have access to the internet using my Win 8 laptop (using it now to write this).
If you need more information on the system please let me know and I'll supply what I can.
Thanks for any help.
