ASRock Z68 Extreme4 Gen3 LAN problem

Hey all, I just got done pulling out my ATI 5770's and installed the massive NVIDIA Gigabyte GTX 570, reinstalled Windows, updated drivers etc, except now, my LAN port isn't working at all. Drivers are installed, everything is as far as I know, up to date, all other ports on the motherboard work etc. Just this LAN port isn't working. It's so bizarre, and I'm stumped here. Any help is much appreciated.

Yeah that was my girlfriends, didn't realise I was signed in till later. Going to try a new driver from their website, hopefully that helps it work. Though it shouldn't be causing it to not work should it?

installed the intel inf chipset updates?

z68 is an intel chipset which includes the network lan.

should work by default technically unless asrock did something wrong.

Yeah its been awesome up until now, where it just refuses to work since I put this 570 in. Still got no internet connection, uninstalled current drivers and installed new ones, installed the Intel chooser, nothing. Just refuses to work.

Holy crap I'm getting annoyed at this. Why has it decided to not work now?! Why doesn't it work after a fresh install either. So weird!

Perhaps it's dead and you'll have to RMA it?

The thing is, everything else works perfectly fine, except the LAN. And it only stopped when I changed GPU. I just tried updating drivers, no luck there again. Nothing works.

Screw it, this is never going to be fixed. How much is an external LAN port?
