motherboard wet, still posts, no network


Recommended Posts

so i have a server that got wet and the onboard eth port stopped working. The server boots and if i select GUI i can get to the browser/desktop but localhost doesnt load. I have a pcie nic i can add but the server doesnt seem to get an ip other than the self assigned 169.254.x.x. Is there a way i can modify a config file to use the add in nic?

i have a replacement motherboard ready and backups of the boot usb. i am going to move the drives over eventually and get this server going again. I have the boot usb drive so no need to transfer license i think. Are there any other steps/guides id need to take to ensure a smooth mobo swap?

ryzen 2600g, going from z470 to b450 motherboard, both gigabyte

3 2tb drives and 1 sd cache all sata
