I got a nasty virus, So I decided the best way to rid of it is to format. So I formatted... But now I cannot connect to the internet at all, My router is connected to my PC via ethernet. It doesn't show up at all in network connections and when I type in ipconfig into the CMD it returns with nothing. I can connect if I plug in the little wireless adapter thing. But I want full speed!
Any help?
Okay, So its probably the driver... How would I go around getting a driver?
The driver for your LAN card is not installed, so your Operating System doesn't even know you have one. Find the driver on another computer put it on a USB stick then take it to the computer that has the problem and install it. This should fix the problem.
go to device manager, and if your right abut the driver it should be showing that theres an ethernet card that is uninstalled... with a yellow triangle over it. just note down the model of it, use the comp ur on now, go to the manufacturers site and get the driver for the model. use a memory stick and install it on your internetless computer to install the driver.
Check your drivers my friend. That should be it.
