Yellow Flag on Intel 82579V Gigbit Network Connection

[link to this post]

I have an issue with one of my Ethernet connections. On the Properties tab, under 'General' I have this shown:

This device cannot start. (Code 10)

{Operation Failed}
The requested operation was unsuccessful.

I have tried uninstalling the driver and reinstalling but cannot get over this issue. On the Windows Update panel there was an update to install but it refused to install with an Error details Code 80070103.

Luckily my PC has a second Ethernet port which works fine, but I'd be happy to resolve this issue. Any ideas??

Error 80070103 when updating a driver via Windows Update is often an indication that the driver being installed is already installed or an earlier version of the one currently installed.

I would suggest checking on the web site of the motherboard's manufacturer to see if they have a more recent driver, if so, download and install manually.

Thanks BatBoy - tried the Fixit - it said 'not fixed' driver issue. I think I knew that! I'll have a look at Intel's site, but I have also tried their Driver Utility Program, which again failed, so, it's a bit annoying.

Can someone here point me in the right direction? Could this be the driver I need?

If it's not a driver error then it could be a registry error. If it is, easiest way to fix is to use System Restore to a time when it was working.
Could also be a hardware fault with the network port. No easy way to confirm that.
Usually, I just stick any old spare hard disk in the PC and do a test build. If it proves the port is faulty then probably best to just ignore it and if you need a second network port just install another network card.

Many thanks - I ran the utility (as above) yesterday, still the same. It does look as though the port has failed, but the second port is working fine, so, for now, I'll just ignore the fault. I could I guess consider buying a USB 3 dongle to plug into my PC as it's right beside the router. (Fitting hardware is not something I'd attempt to do myself!)
