serviceman please?<br>
<br>
Story is lightning strike on power pole, a local computer bloke
diagnosed a fried mboard and replaced, which at least allowed it
to boot but does not recognise the netgear ethernet cable.<br>
<br>
This is being sent from my small laptop via wifi from the router
which seems to indicate that works.<br>
<br>
I'll deliver the computer and of course pay - not looking for a
freebie just need my computer back.<br>
<br>
Running Kubuntu but tried a Gnome live disk, no change advised
cable not connected.<br>
<br>
Any advice would be appreciated.<br>
