Well i did option 2, and it did work, it finally acted like it was a full new install, but once again when i selected network settings, it simply locked up, and when it finally was not locked up, it again showed nothing for a network adapter. Yet somehow im using my network adapter to post this.

Ugh!!

So option two loading your os, can I do that without reformatting, im getting off topic, but i dont have a back up hard drive yet, so can you just reload windows?

I also updated my network drivers, which did not doing anything, im just stunned by this! Of all things that could go wrong.
