Hello, I have a somewhat older ASUS m4A77TD-PRO motherboard in a computer that I just started using again for the first time in a few months. I installed a GTX 760 (Not sure if that is related to this problem), and I've been trying to download a few very large games, and after about an hour or 2 of downloading, my connection kicks off, giving me a red X in the bottom right of the screen. I have determined that it is not my router, because other connections on my network still work, not the cable, because I have tried 2 different cables. Whats weird is that the orange light on the motherboard is still lighting up (green obviously off) when it goes down, and simply restarting the computer fixes the issue temporarily, until I start downloading something again. I have tried rolling back the driver to the original driver on the CD, but that did not work. Is there anything else I can try before I have to go get just a seperate NIC? Thanks
