Hi everyone,

I'm having a big trouble with my MSI K9A2-CF mainboard. It doesn't detect Realtek network driver when i restart the pc within windows. It's asking for the drivers but can't install anyway. If i switch off the pc completely and turn on everything's ok.

Has anyone come across to such a problem with this Realtek 8111b chip or mainboard itself?
 
Sounds like a windows problem. The Biostar TA790GX A2+ has realtek Gigabit ethernet RTL 8163C/8111C. I've had problems getting my crossover cable to be recognised as being plugged in until I disabled flow control in the advanced tab in hardware properties. For you though, maybe disabling the device, uninstalling the drivers, restart and running the install from the MSI CD. Don't let windows install drivers. Reenable the device and turn off flow control like I did. It couldn't hurt.
