Hi guys,
I am using a fairly old pc (configuration below) from last few years. Due to internal network port got damaged I am using an USB to Ethernet adapter for network connection(wishnet broadband) for more than a year without any issue (in fact I am using it right now). But my local ISP agent inform me that I should use a PCI NIC for better service and reliability so, I purchased a D-link 10/100Mbps Fast Ethernet PCI Adapter (DFE-520TX) and installed it and without any driver installation it shows in device manager installed perfectly.
But when i connect the LAN cable to its port it doesn't lit up and showing network cable unplugged although immediately when I connect that to my old USB to Ethernet adapter its working fine. Can't understand whats the problem. At first I thought my mobo PCI slot got damaged but if so then how the PCI card showing installed and running perfectly in device manager.
Please help me
Thanks in advance.
PC Config:
Intel Pentium Dual Core E2200
3GB RAM
500 + 250 GB HDD
Windows 10 Professional
