I recently built a brand new pc msi z97 gaming 5 mobo gtx 780 intel core i5 4690k and a 50 ft ethernet cable. I tried plugging it into my modem to my pc and i recieved no internet connection i call my srrvice provider, ethernet cable company and modem company. And none of them where any help. I checked my management in control panel and i recieved this picture ( posting with this post) i cant find any drivers for it and i dont know what to do. Also installing mobo and grpahics cards drivers via copy and paste usb is not working either. Also my modem is a moterolla sbg 94. I may be getting an upgrade for that though. What can i do?

Use the disk for lan drivers then update those online as well as downloading any other drivers.

Has nothing to do with the cable. The motherboard came with a disk. Use that.

I dont have an optical drive?

If USB doesn't work, then there isn't anything you can do. Use the USB method.
