My onboard network card crapped out yesterday, brand new asus mobo with onboard gigabit lan by realtek. Only been running the sytem for a couple of weeks. I tried uninstalling and reinstalling the drivers and did a system restore because it crapped out shortly after a critical update from microsoft for win7, no luck don't even get a flicker from the yellow light at the back where the ethernet cable plugs in. Anyone have any similar problems with there onboard network card?

So I turned off the onboard lan and picked up this

works pretty good, no speed loss, it actually seems faster and although it does'nt say so the drivers work fine for win7

I got the router hooked up works fine, but as you mentioned when you here biguy, the mobo did completely go after the lan went so I was forced to totally rebuild yet again, the old parts could no longer be trusted so here is what I did right down to a new case:
Case:
Antec two hundred
PSU:
Orion Power Supply
Mobo:
Asus M4A78-EM
CPU:
Athlon II 250
Ram: Kinston DDR2 4 gb
HDD:
WD Caviar Green 1tb
OS: Win7 home premium 64 bit.
I kept my old graphics card however:
Nvidia 8400gs
Now thats it, I can not afford to do this every two weeks lol.
this is why I have not been on for about a week.

I figured it would go. This is why I hate on-board anything...the motherboard should be just that and nothing else. Glad to see you got a new system and are back online though.
