Just built new system with the MSI Z87 -G45 motherboard. Have had nothing but problems with this board since i built a new system wish i would have stayed with asrock boards. First thing is the killer e2200 problem alot have been having. Wont Show a network card in device manager at all it did when i first put the system together before updating drivers and now nothing cant connect to internet and does not show in devices. @nd problem my dvd drive will not work unless i restart computer with disc i want in. if i try and change discs while on the drive disspears all together from device list and drive list on my computer. Any help with these issues would be awesome.
 
Solution
Check and make sure you have the latest BIOS, they supposedly 'fixed' the NIC problem with the BIOS update, but many still have continued to have problems

Try disabling killer Ethernet on start up type msconfig and then hit enter, go to start up and click the box that says qualcomm, and then click apply. For your optical drive, right click Computer, go down to manage, and then click on disk management. then click on change drive letters and path's and set the drive letter to D: unless that letter is already assigned. It should say CD-ROM 0 and under that DVD
