I Switched computers with my grandpa reformated both my internet works fine, I did switch back the NIC cards. His computer has the message in the task bar "a network cable is unplugged" He has cable, his modem is connected directly to the computer. He has a linksyes ethernet card. I really need to get this fixed asap.

Go into the device manager and make sure the card is installed properly. You may need to reseat it.

Are there any lights flashing on the back of the NIC? Is the Link or activity light lit up on the modem?
