Network Fails Occasionally

Hi! For some reason, sometimes when my computer boots, not often, but sometimes the internet is not working when it boots. I unplug the Ethernet cable, plug it back in, and it still doesn't work until I go to the start menu and do a full restart, not just pressing the restart button on the case. Does anybody know why this is happening?

Reinstall drivers. otherwise you may need to get a PCIE adaptor, the onboard one might be dying

Is it Windows 10? There was that update a while ago that broke DHCP until a reboot occurred.

Yes, I am using Windows 10 pro. A while ago there was a quick flash of the lights during a storm, and my computer turned off immediately. Only a few times does this happen every so often

Ok. I will try to reinstall some of the MSI drivers that came with my motherboard. Thanks!

Get the newest ones from MSI website, the ones on the install disc will probably be ancient by this time.

Please quote my post, or put @paddy-stone if you want me to respond to you.
