After I boot I have a weird bug since Ive gone to build 7100 from beta on windows 7: I have to disable / enable my Local Area Connection to be able to get on the network. Whats weird is I can ping my router and I didnt have the problem on Windows 7 beta. Note- I did do an upgrade from Vista Home Premium to Windows 7 beta and I had to do a scratch install with Windows 7 RC 7100. Hardware: Hard Drive OS= Raptor WD1500ADFD Hard Drive Storage= 300 GB (extra from Nicole's PC, will go with a TB in a month or so) Memory= CORSAIR Dominator 2GB (2 x 1GB) DDR2 1066 (PC2 8500) Dual Channel (OCed at 900Mhz) Motherboard= EVGA nforce 680i Socket 775 CPU cooler/thermal paste= Zalman CPU Cooler COOL-CNPS9500-AT (I got Arctic sliver 5 from Frys a couple weeks ago) CPU = Intel Core 2 Extreme QX6850 Kentsfield 3.0GHz 2 x 4MB L2 Cache LGA 775 Processor (OCed @ 3.33Ghz) BIOS of MB: P33 Nvida driver version: nForce 680i SLI / 680i LT SLI 15.25 My guess is Ive got some driver issue with the NIC or when loading the nForce drivers I added some sort of blocking. Is this a windows 7 bug or driver / app bug? Thanks.

Im having exactly the same problem. if i dont disable the Local Area Connection, i cant get on the network. I am with 3 partitions with windos 7rc, windos XP 32 and windows vista, and only on the 7RC i have this problem. First i thought is a driver problem, but I tried the realtek ethernet site for their drive, tried the motherboard cd driver and the windows search drive engine, and none could solve the problem I dont know what else to do.

I am having the exact same problem.. a lot of people are also having this problem. I upgraded from Windows Vista Ultimate. I have a Marvell Yukon Gigabit card which came with the ASUS P6T motherboard.
