    ASUS P5GC-MX/1333 - Atheros L2 onboard NIC,blank gateway line?

    As the title says - I have this ASUS P5GC-MX/1333 motherboard here that works fine,apart from the onboard NIC giving "Unindentifed Network - No Network Access" under Windows 7 or Vista.

    Any ideas how can I permanently fix this? A temporary fix is to generate a default MAC address but whenever I need to reinstall Windows it goes back to the problem - blank gateway line.

    For the record,I tried three cables and all do the same thing. I tried them on my P5QL PRO machine and they work fine on that one.

      this issue only occurs under win7/vista? nic works fine under a linux live session? if so, could be bad vista/win7 drivers. try another version. if it has problems under linux too then the nic could be bad. u'll have to use a pci or pci-e nic expansion card.

          Maybe the contents of the rom attached to the NIC chip got corrupted, ask at the manufacturer for the programming software (on some asrock motherboards you can download it from their support site, it may work with yours if they use the same NIC)

              IIRC corrupted rom usually gave no MAC address,but I'll look into that.

              Chaoslegionnaire - Linux works fine. I tried both ASUS' drivers and standalone Atheros L2 drivers with the same result.

                  I had opposite problem - Win7 & Vista worked but not XP

                  How did you install driver ? - might be worth trying option specify location to find driver, then drill down until you're pointing to NDIS 6.0 location - if you settle for a higher level directory, maybe Win7 selects NDIS 5.1 driver instead

                  better to keep quiet and be thought a fool, than to open your mouth and remove all doubt

                      Through device manager,and I remember it said NDIS 6.2.

                          Check if the mac you have on linux is the same as what is supposed to be (in that case forget about a corrupted rom), if not the linux might generate a new one in case of not finding a valid mac

                              Samsung UN50TU8000FXZC shows thin horizontal green line when warm
                              by cubytus
                              Hi to all,

                              I was given this TV, an entry-level 4K 50" set. Some have criticized its lack of contrast and relatively poor colour rendering, but for my needs, it's very decent.

                              I reset everything to factory settings, but this line keeps on fading in and out when watching a streaming channel from the Tizen firmware. Interestingly, it only happens when TV is warm, after about 1h45 of it being turned on.

                              Watching a movie from an external source doesn't trigger the line as easily (needs 2 hours), and from a normal viewing distance, is hardly noticeable. It...

                              Kogan - KALED65XU9220STB - Blue Vertical Line
                              by TrueSword88
                              Hi all.

                              I have a Kogan 65' LCD Panel with a thin blue vertical line (top to bottom) on left hand side of panel.
                              The line just happens to coincide with the end of COF and start of the next COF (attached).

                              The line is permanent no matter what I've tried. I've tried pressure testing the panel (top to bottom) and all over, I didn't notice any difference with the line, either temporary or semi-permanent.

                              Also tried unplugging all flex cables, cleaned with isopropyl then re-inserting to no avail - line remains.


                              Hoping to fix...

                              Running Line Voltage and Integrating LED Pods - Automotive
                              by FALKLAN
                              Howdy everyone! I hope all is well where ever you are!

                              I'm attempting to integrate a couple of LED pods into an automotive reverse lamp circuit. The problem being, while the vehicle is running there is a 8.5v current present on the reverse lamp power wire. Needless to say is that all LED pods and lights dimly illuminate while the 8.5v is present, so the LEDs are always powered on while the vehicle is running. When the vehicle is shifted into reverse, the voltage changes to 12 volts.

                              I am uncertain how to convert this line into a switched 12v output line for the LED pods....

                              by mindoverflow
                              hello,

                              there is an asus gtx1650 which displays fine in windows but if i run a benchmark test it displays artifacts and the driver crashes after a second or two.

                              I changed pads and thermal paste.

                              I run mats test but it is reporting 0 errors.

                              I then tried to run the mods version 400.271_1650 test, it first ran and stopped with a 'breakpoints limit reached after 5 retries' error and the fans went full speed.

                              After a reboot, I tried to run the test again, but now the test fails and says "ERROR: Couldn't clear GPU's interrupt...

                              Nintendo 2DS SD Card Reader issue. Problem on the clock line?
                              by Technomancer
                              I have a 2DS that I am working on that has a problem reading SD cards. It knows that card is in the slot (which, means the detect pin is working anyway) but it says it can’t read the card.

                              Here is what I have done so far:
                              -Tried SD card in another 2DS and on PC, works great.
                              -Tried piggybacking another SD card slot (just so I didn’t have to take the other one off), same issue.
                              -Compared voltage drop readings from a working 2DS to the faulty one. All reads are very close except one, the 7th pin from the left, with the pins closest to you, which I believe...
