So I was surfing the web the other day and suddenly the internet just stopped. I checked all the cables, rebooted the modem and the router, restarted my computer and checked the connections. All looks fine but I still cant connect. I don't know what could be causing this. If I try to uninstall or reinstall my nforce4 ethernet driver it just freezes on uninstallation or installation. Ive downloaded the new drivers but those freeze too. Any idea on what this could be?
PS: It cant be my router or modem because I can get on on my laptop and 360 without a problem. It also says the ethernet controller is installed correctly and is recognized in device manager.
Damn this is annoying
 
Uninstall the controller through device manager and restart. Windows should reload the drivers. Do you get an IP address at all?
 
I cant uninstall. It freezes when I do that like mentioned in the OP. Is there any way to uninstall without actually doing the process? Like manually?
 
Reset your CMOS, it may be corrupt and not allowing the network adapter to function.
