Z.  Haven't tried this just yet.  Being an advanced novice at this can you be a little more specific on the "network drivers" that need to be uninstalled?  Want to make sure that I don't do anything that stops the system from working.

Actually, in Windows terms, it's the device that gets uninstalled, I guess.

 

Go to device manager (where you said you can see the network devices), right click, uninstall.  Do this for both devices.  Then from the action menu "scan for hardware changes" and let Windows reinstall both drivers.  You may need to select some device to get "scan" to show up in the action menu.

Just to make sure that I understand this, where will I find the Action Menu.  Is that on the device manager page or is that found somewhere else?
