Hi, need help here on the above issue. a few days ago, my pc suddenly cannot detect any network adapter, i couldn't install any network driver as my onboard network adapter gone missing. followed some advise found on the net and tried resetting my windows 10 but still same problem, suspect is my mb gone case liao. any one can advised if my suspicion is correct? currently on tight budget so would like more suggestions before spending money to buy new processor (ryzen 3200g) and mb (asus tuf b450m gaming).

my setup i7-4770 with Asus B85 Pro-gamer, 16gb kingston ram, gtx970, creative audigy fx, gamepro 650w.

From Device Manager -> Network adapters, you can see the NIC and its status.

U can first buy either a USB-to-RJ45 adapter card or a PCIE-to-RJ45 adapter card, if u dun want to upgrade mobo yet.
