Dear johnwill,

1. I have uninstalled the network card's driver, then reinstalled, but made no difference.
2. Then I did the TCP/IP stack repair as you suggested - still no luck.
3. There is no light whatsoever at the back of the PC where the ethernet cable goes.
4. I have done the IPCONFIG - please see below what I got

I found it weird that when I uninstalled the network card's driver and rebooted the PC, it recognized the hardware, loaded the driver, but still it displayed that no cable is connected.

I would be grateful for any further suggestion.
Thanking you
