"Local Network Cable Unplugged" error
Hi,
I keep getting this error once in a while. It doesn't seem to actually be true. Is this something to be concerned about and how do I fix or stop it? Mobo is an ASUS A8N-SLI Deluxe On-board Network Adapter is a Marvell Yukon 88E8001 Unfortuneatly the on-board NVIDIA nForce Network Controller was distroyed (or it appears so - I have it disabled now) during a severe lightening strike but the MB survived! I have it hooked up to a LinkSys Wireless G router Any ideas? -pw |

I have it hooked up to a LinkSys Wireless G router The motherboard did not actually "survive" intact. It is failing occasionally and that is why you're getting the error. Either live with it until the board fails completely, purchase a PCI network adapter and hope the board lives on, or replace the motherboard. Get an Uninterruptible Power Supply for future protection from lightning storms. Malke -- Elephant Boy Computers www.elephantboycomputers.com "Don't Panic!" MS-MVP Windows - Shell/User |

I did, in fact have a UPS (Energizer brand) running with the ethernet cables going in and out of both (yes, I had two - one for my router/switch and one for my PC). It was a 1 in a 1000 lightening storm that we experience where we live. Thanks for the information! -pw |

Malke Hey Malke, I just asked my wife and she says she gets that error message once in a while too (but it appears not as often as I do). -pw |
