00:00:00,333 --> 00:00:04,833

In this lesson, let's talk about the maintenance ideas of the network card that does not recognize

2

00:00:05,133 --> 00:00:08,600

The failure phenomenon of not recognizing the network card is very clear,

3

00:00:09,033 --> 00:00:12,133

that is, the network card cannot be seen in the device manager

4

00:00:13,466 --> 00:00:17,766

We can see that there are so many network card devices in the network tester

5

00:00:17,933 --> 00:00:21,966

But the devices here are not all real network cards

6

00:00:22,133 --> 00:00:27,500

Only the two in the middle are physical network cards, and the rest are virtual network cards mapped by the system.

7

00:00:27,833 --> 00:00:31,333

We must pay attention to distinguishing them

8

00:00:32,533 --> 00:00:34,000

If the network card is not recognized,

9

00:00:34,233 --> 00:00:37,666

it is generally because the working conditions of the network card are not met,

10

00:00:37,733 --> 00:00:40,166

or the chip of the network card is damaged.

11

00:00:40,300 --> 00:00:43,866

Therefore, when we do not recognize the failure of the network card during maintenance,

12

00:00:43,933 --> 00:00:47,966

we must conduct maintenance around the working conditions of the network card

13

00:00:48,400 --> 00:00:52,033

Of course, in maintenance, we still have to follow the maintenance principle of soft first, then hard,

14

00:00:52,066 --> 00:00:53,866

easy first and then difficult.

15

00:00:54,166 --> 00:00:56,733

So we have to troubleshoot the software first,

16

00:00:56,933 --> 00:00:59,966

that is, clear the CMOS or flash a new BIOS

17

00:01:00,266 --> 00:01:05,300

Use a new system to test to ensure that the network card failure is not caused by software

18

00:01:06,666 --> 00:01:11,366

Clearing CMOS is also very simple, we only need to pull out the button battery and put it on for a while.

19

00:01:13,000 --> 00:01:16,900

Next, we need to observe whether there is any physical damage near the network card

20

00:01:17,200 --> 00:01:20,166

Observation is always the preferred method

21

00:01:20,300 --> 00:01:24,000

Because many faults can be solved by observation

22

00:01:24,133 --> 00:01:27,966

For example, there are dropped parts, corrosion and broken wires next to the network card, etc.

23

00:01:28,366 --> 00:01:30,066

These obvious physical injuries

24

00:01:30,066 --> 00:01:33,733

Use the observation method to quickly find the fault point

25

00:01:34,700 --> 00:01:38,666

Further down, we need to check whether all the power supplies of the network card are normal

26

00:01:38,966 --> 00:01:40,733

Power supply is the best test

27

00:01:40,966 --> 00:01:43,733

We must pay attention when testing the power supply of the network card,

28

00:01:43,933 --> 00:01:47,533

the power supply of the network card around 1V is generated by itself

29

00:01:47,800 --> 00:01:50,233

If not, the network card may be damaged.

30

00:01:51,400 --> 00:01:56,933

Next, we need to measure whether the crystal oscillator of the network card starts to vibrate.

31

00:01:57,233 --> 00:02:00,500

This needs to be measured with an oscilloscope.

32

00:02:01,566 --> 00:02:05,133

After the power supply and clock are tested, we also need to measure the reset signal

33

00:02:05,433 --> 00:02:07,766

The reset signal is the platform reset signal

34

00:02:08,033 --> 00:02:13,400

If the power supply, clock and reset are normal, we have to check whether the PCIE bus is normal

35

00:02:13,933 --> 00:02:16,766

There are a total of six wires on the PCIE bus.

36

00:02:16,866 --> 00:02:23,166

We need to connect the ground values separately to prevent them from short circuit or open circuit.

37

00:02:23,700 --> 00:02:28,066

But it should be noted here that there is generally a coupling capacitor in the middle of the PCIE bus,

38

00:02:28,433 --> 00:02:30,966

we must pay attention when measuring

39

00:02:31,333 --> 00:02:33,733

Coupling capacitance will lead to unmeasured value

40

00:02:33,933 --> 00:02:38,066

We should measure at the end of the coupling capacitor close to the bridge

41

00:02:40,400 --> 00:02:45,300

Going down, measure whether the clock request signal REQ is low

42

00:02:45,333 --> 00:02:50,366

In other words, has the bridge received this low-level REQ signal?

43

00:02:51,200 --> 00:02:54,066

Because it is possible that the network card has lowered the REQ,

44

00:02:54,266 --> 00:02:57,733

but this low-level REQ has not been given to the bridge

45

00:02:58,466 --> 00:03:03,866

If possible, it is best to measure the PCIE bus to see if there is any waveform on its clock line

46

00:03:05,733 --> 00:03:10,866

If there is a waveform, it means that the bridge has sent the clock of the PCIE bus,

47

00:03:11,366 --> 00:03:13,733

and it must have received the REQ signal.

48

00:03:14,900 --> 00:03:20,533

The reason why the bridge does not send out the PCIE bus clock is that it does not receive the REQ signal

49

00:03:22,000 --> 00:03:26,766

If all of the above are normal, then we can only try to replace them.

50

00:03:27,000 --> 00:03:30,533

We can replace the coupling capacitor of the PCIE bus

51

00:03:30,733 --> 00:03:34,933

Because if there is a problem with the coupling capacitor and the data cannot be transmitted,

52

00:03:35,533 --> 00:03:37,400

of course the network card will not be recognized.

53

00:03:38,400 --> 00:03:41,466

Going down, we have to replace the network card test

54

00:03:41,700 --> 00:03:46,366

The probability of actual network card damage is still very high

55

00:03:46,600 --> 00:03:53,600

If we have the same network card on hand, we don't need to check these, just change a network card and test it first.

56

00:03:55,700 --> 00:04:00,200

Finally, if the network card is changed, we have also tested the above conditions, and they are all normal,

57

00:04:00,433 --> 00:04:02,700

but the network card is still not recognized.

58

00:04:03,166 --> 00:04:06,666

Then we can only try to replace the PCH

59

00:04:07,000 --> 00:04:11,600

Well, the above are the maintenance ideas for not recognizing the network card
