Network adaptor fail

[tomo123456]

Hi,

after successfully replacing a motherboard, i am unable to connect to the internet at all. i have no network adaptors showing in device manager, and the "ethernet controller" in other devices has no drivers and therefore doesnt work. I have no idea if i need this or what it does.
i have done an ipconfig/all which returns:
host name..........Tom-PC
primary Dns Suffix........ [this is blank]
node type.........mixed
ip routing enabled......... no
wins proxy enabled....... no

tunnel adapter local area connection*7

media state ............... media disconnected
connection specific dns suffix........... [blank]
description..................teredo tunneling pseudo interface
physical address.........02-00-54-55-4e-01
dchp enabled..........no
autoconfiguration enabled...............yes

the problem is not my modem or internet stuff as it works fine on my laptop. I'm not 100% sure that the new motherboard recognises the ethernet cable going in to it, as i had problems at first with it not recognising usb mice. i fixed this in bios so maybe there is a solution there?


thanks for your help,

Tom

is the NIC enabled in the BIOS?

is anything listed under Other Devices in the Device Manager?

if the network cable works on the laptop it should work with the MOBO

Ethernet controller is your network adapter. Install the drivers for the board from the disk that should have been with the package.
