Hi,

Since this morning, I cannot connect to the internet. It seems like my
drivers for my LAN device where corrupted or uninstalled. I had problems with
a sofware yesterday and unsintalled it. I also did a scan with Malwarebytes
and found some infected files. I think it might have corrupted my LAN drivers.

Here's a screen shot of my device manager.

As you can see from the next screenshot in the Ethernet Controller
Properties, the drivers aren't installed. When I click on the Reinstall
Driver button, I go through the steps of reinstalling the drivers from local
or from CD and I get this:

Cannot Install this Hardware:

There was a problem installing it this hardware:

Ethernet Controller

An error occured during the installation of the device. The name is already
in use as either a service name or a service display name.

Here's a screenshot:

I'm not sure what the procedure to reinstall the drivers is. The LAN is on
my mothereboard (ASUS P4P800) and the model is a Marvell Yukon Gigabit
Ethernet 10/100/1000 Base-T Adaptor, Copper RJ-45.

I'm not a pro whenit comes to pc so step by step procedures are welcome.

Thanks,
Ben
 
Try to _uninstall_ the netcard completely,
and if there are any non-present instances of it, uninstall these as well.
For this, reboot in safe mode and select "Show hidden devices" in dev.
manager.

Good luck.
