I just installed windows 7 on a new SSD, and for some reason I am having the issues listed above. I am using an Ethernet cord. Whenever I boot from my HDD with my old OS, everything works flawlessly. Any help would be greatly appreciated!

I couldn't find the CD. Any back up plan?

Check device manager for any hardware with yellow question marks. You will probably see that you don't have the correct drivers as a fresh install doesn't have your needed drivers so you need to install the chipset drivers and LAN drivers onto the SSD. You will also need to go to windows update and get all of the patches.

Go to your MB site and check for the latest drivers for your version of Win 7 in either 32 or 64 bit. After extracting and installing those drivers you should be good to go. Check for any other driver updates there as well
