Hello,
I am using GA-Z77X-UP5-TH motherboard.
Everytime I cold/hard boot my computer (turn on electric power buttons then turn on PC)
My Network card gives error (yellow asterisk appears besides card).
I have to uninstall network card, then scan for hardware changes and the same appears properly..


Please help fix this issue.

Thanks.

Which BIOS version are you currently on for your motherboard? As for your OS, since you posted in the Windows 10 section, what version(not edition) of the OS are you working with? You might want to try manually reinstalling your driver for the networking adapter in an elevated command(after sourcing the latest driver from Gigabyte's support site or from Intel's support site, if they have it) i.e, Right click installer>Run as Administrator, when you uninstall it, without rediscovering the device using Device Manager.

Look in Reliability History and Event Viewer. Either one or both may be capturing some other related error codes, warnings, or even an informational event that you can match to the adapter failures.

As I understand your post you are able to recover by uninstalling the network card, etc.... Correct?

Compare the event entries from when the failure occurs to event entries that appear after the uninstall and successful start of the network adapter.

Reliability History presents a time line format that may highlight some pattern of events.

You can also run the built in Windows troubleshooters. The trouble shooters may find and fix something.

Posssibly corrupt or buggy Windows files.

Try "sfc /scannow" and "dism".

Thank You for your reply, Reliability History is not showing anything except for 3 days ago, when had few system errors, fixed those using sfc /scannow and DSIM

Cleared all Even Viewer logs and shut down PC.
Logs from Application and Security are Information and Success (i assume no errors there)
Here are logs From Windows Event Viewer - System

Ensure that only one network adapter either wired or wireless is enabled. Not two adapters of any sort enabled at the same time.

If wired, have you tried swapping in a known working Ethernet cable?

Run "ipconfig/all" without quotes via the Command Prompt and post the results.

PSU: make, model, wattage, age, condition (original to build, new, refurbished, used)?

First - Disable IPv6. Determine if the error ends.

Second - Temporarily disable that" Virtual/Wifi Network card which is run as a hotspot "

The immediate objective being to restore/recover a wired and stable Ethernet network connection.
Truly appreciate your quick responses. Thanks will do same.

Results of:
C:\Windows\system32>sfc /scannow

Beginning system scan. This process will take some time.

Beginning verification phase of system scan.
Verification 100% complete.

Windows Resource Protection found corrupt files but was unable to fix some of them.
For online repairs, details are included in the CBS log file located at
windir\Logs\CBS\CBS.log. For example C:\Windows\Logs\CBS\CBS.log. For offline
repairs, details are included in the log file provided by the /OFFLOGFILE flag.
