I have used Windows 10 for a very long time.
I tried to add a Linux distribution (here Mint) in dual boot.
I did it smoothly, with no BIOS manipulation (from my side, at least), but the Ethernet ceased to work after this.
I did not try to fix the problem on Linux, but I did spend a lot of time on Windows, implementing all the suggestions from the Windows support:
- I run the network troubleshooter, which said that the cable was not connected.
- I checked the cable (I tested it on another computer).
- I checked the router/modem (tested on another computer too).
- I run all the commands suggested.
- I uninstalled/reinstalled the Ethernet drivers (and rebooted several times).
- Reset the network.
Here is what I observed:
- Windows still says that the cable is not connected.
- No light (nor blinking) on the Ethernet card.
- Wifi is working.
- The installed BIOS seems the most recent one.
Other information
- Ethernet card: Realtek PCIe GbE Family Controller
- Mainboard: ASUS P50AD Rev X.0x
- BIOS: AMI 0302 09/19/2014
What are my options now?
