    This might be a surge problem. Powerline hit by the discharge. Travels down to your household line. Enters you PSU, boom! did not end there, damaged your HDD as well.

    There are two possible things that might have burned your LAN card.

    One. It might be from the DSL line to your LAN card. But if this is the case, your modem should have taken the hardest hit.

    Two. From your busted PSU to your MB to your LAN card. Now this is something horrible. Hope it is not.

    I suggest you check first your modem. Second, considering you have a new PCI LAN card, try transfering it in another PCI slot.

    hehehe...my sympathies!

    my set-up experienced at least 4 power surges...presumably caused by lightning.
    1st strike...modem and mobo gave up, dial-up pa ko sa una. Good thing no visible burnt component...so the store replaced my mobo at no cost. Siempre wala ko ingon nga igo kilat.
    2nd strike...my HDD and modem gave up, this time it cost me, a lot! kay hasta data wagtang!
    3rd strike...my lan card, modem, sound card my cli phone(landline) gave up...tsk tsk tsk suki ko sa kilat da!
    4th strike...my lan card and HP printer gave up! tsk tsk tsk!

    Lessons learned:
    - wala na nako gamita ang internal modem, unya wala na nako gi konek ang PC sa landline network.
    - if the internet slows down, could be the lan card. Tingali na igo ug power surge. Use another PC/laptop to verify connection.
    - Don't buy a 3-in-one printer/copier/scanner device, inig ka guba...you loose all three! Mahal pa gyud!
    - always have a back-up or always back-up your data! tsk tsk tsk!
    - if there are no visible damage on your devices, if under warranty, don't tell the store where you got your device the entire story...ayaw sulti nga nagcomputer ko unya sige man to ug kilat...unya ni brownout, pagbalik siga, dili na mo ON ang computer...hehehe
    - use a 3com lan card para sure! bwehehehe

    I usually but not always unplug my set-up kung dili ko mogamit, pero usahay ang kalimot walay gahom...timingan lang gyud!
