I am upgrading my GPU to a R9 280x from an old Nvidia Card, I’ve uninstalled the drivers to the old card (Nvidia drivers), and am now currently running my display off the motherboard. After I uninstalled the drivers my wired internet connection has ceased to be recognised and the PC no longer acknowledges there is even a cable plugged in.
There is nothing wrong with the cable (I tested it with my laptop), the motherboard lights up to indicate the cable is plugged in. But no connection, have I missed something here? I can’t put it down to anything else, because I that is the only variable I changed before it stopped working.
