GA-Z77-D3H on board LAN loosing Connection.

[JaseGP]

Hi I have issues with on board LAN loosing connect and or sometimes it bsod when playing f1 2011 but all ok if you are just in the windows desk top. If I disable the onboard LAN and use a pci LAN card this doesn't happen when playing the game.

I've been playing this game all year on my old system without a problem. No one else has had this issue with the game or this motherboard that I can find.

Running the ga-z77-d3h board and f18 BIOS. Also updated all the drivers. Is that the latest BIOS as I think I saw f19a on this thread. What does it fix ?

Do you think its motherboard ,BIOS or game issue? Other people are getting problems with freezing at the desk top and I have tried their fixes but only when I disable the onboard LAN does it fix the in game issue.

Any help or ideas?
Thanks

Check the IP address, onboard driver and LAN setup. can you see the onboard LAN device in the device manager?

Thanks for the reply , the onboard LAN was working fine when just in the desktop it was only when I played F1 2011 that it played up. I'm having other issues now so I will be returning the board and getting a new one. Just about had enough of the Z77 chipset and i7 3770k cpu. My old 3.18ghz core duo never mist a beat and I have just fired it up again after removing the Gigabyte board.

Cheers
