Dear reader,
I recently upgraded from Linux Ubuntu OS to Windows 7 Professional, however to my surprise there was a red cross at the Networl Connection symbol on the taskbar. After troubleshooting, it said the following; "Plug an Ethernet cable into this computer", although I cannot find my Ethernet cable. In 'Device Manager', the 'Network Controller' has a yellow warning sign on it, I am not sure what to do considering when I try updating it, it says "Windows was unable to install your Network Controller". Lastly, the 'Network Adapter' is 'Realtek RTL8102E/RTL8103E Family Ethernet NIC (NDIS 6.20)'. I would also like to inform you that I previously had my WiFi working and the laptop's original OS was Windows 7 Home Edition.
Laptop Info:
Model - HP G56 Notebook PC
Product No. - XP267EA#ABU
Serial No. - CNF0426F0K
