Hi, I got some problems with Intel 82579V Gigabit NIC on my GA-Z77X-UD5H mainboard, after latest windows updates I noticed that after logon sequence network connection remains down.
I checked on device managent and found nic disabled, entering properties show these messages:
Unable to start device (Code 10)
{Operation failed}
Requested operation failed.
I tried to check interface configuration via CLI with ipconfig command, it returns as the interface was disconnected from network, the same with in "ipconfig /renew" command.
Checking event log I found events like this (translated from italian):
Registry: System
Origin: e1cexpress
Date: 29/06/2013 22.19.13
Event ID: 24
Activity type: None
Level: Error
Keyword: Classic
User: N/D
Computer: <computer hostname>
Description:
Intel(R) 82579V Gigabit Network Connection
PROBLEM: Unable to start network interface
SOLUTION: Install latest driver from "http://www.intel.com/support/go/network/adapter/home.htm".
I already got the latest driver version (from official Intel website)
I found a workaround that seems to restore network connection, disable and enable interface from windows device management sometimes fix the problem, sometimes I need to uninstall nic and then make OS detect it to restore network connection.
Unplug and plug network cable seems to not fix the problem.
GA-Z77X-UD5H revision is 1.0 bios F14
OS: Windows 8 Professional x64 (last update on 27/06/2013, problem started today 29/06/2013)
Is there anybody who experienced the same problem?
Suggestions?
Thanks for help
