Gigabyte EX58-UD4 LAN problems

[bshagen]

Greetings!

I've recently purchased the Gigabyte EX58-UD4 and I'm having some problems with the onboard LAN. (I've tried with XP and Windows 7 64-bit)

The Device Manager does not list the the onboard card, and I can't seem to find any drivers that will work. It's like it's not even there. In the BIOS (F5), there is a function called "SMART LAN", but this function does not work either.

What is wrong, and can someone please help? If so, can you give me link to the correct driver, beta or not?

Thank you!

Please check if inside BIOS setup you have set as follows:
Integrated Peripherals:
Onboard H/W LAN: Enabled
Green LAN: Disabled

Drivers: use the ones bundled with the MB on the disc.

If all of above doesn't help then try:

- drivers from Realtek website as there is RTL 8111D LAN chip in this MB:

- latest F5 bios for the MB:
