Windows 8 Network Adapter/Ethernet Problem

[LycheeJelly]

I recently finish building my PC 4 hours ago. Everything is working just great soon after when I plugged in my network adapter everything was fine.

I decided to switch back to (WIred Ethernet internet) So I unplugged my wireless adapter and plugged in my Ethernet cable. 

My OS (WINDOWS 8) is still stuck in wireless mode and i can't change it back to Ethernet.

 

I went onto device manager under my (Other Devices) Labeled Ethernet Controller, Pci simple communication center etc they all have (Error 28) Please Help!

 

Mother Board Asus z97a. 

Operating system Microsoft windows 8.1 OEM

You need to install the network driver(ethernet), you can find it on Asus's website under your motherboards page(I can give you the link if needed).

scroll down to FAQ and click on the FAQ drop down, then click on Drivers & Tools and Choose your OS. Navigate to LAN and download the Intel® Gigabit Ehternet Driver. You might need to download this from another computer unless if you download it over WiFi.
