What a day... so here:
• Replaced my crappy AMD 7950x2 Crossfire (driver/crashing problems) with GTX780 (never had problems with nVidia cards)... only changes made while doing so was rearranging DVD drive to make room for the 500ft long card, and had to switch a SATA power cord between two SATA HD's
• Comcast cable network been spotty ever since I got the new XFINITY Technicolor modem, and it stopped working,so I figured it finally went... went and got a replacement at the office, an Arris XFINITY modem
• The wifi from the modem works fine, the LAN works on my laptop but not on my PC that I replaced the graphic card, no matter what port/s or cables I use
• Tried reinstalling/repairing the LAN driver (directly from GB website), but in the end it stopped and said it cannot find the adapter at all, that its basically missing
• Checked BIOS jus in case, all good there
So my thinking is, somehow I either fried or disabled the LAN,or somehow the nVidia card is conflicting, or, somewhat related to some other experience on a similar GA MB, switching the HD SATA cables screwed up something, altho that other guy it was a master/slave issue and mine should be an irrelevant power cable switch really.
Maybe I'm jus tired and vexed from a totally Murphy day, but am I missing something obvious?
