u/Dilemmia

I have an ASUS TUF Gaming F15, bought way back in 2021 IIRC. These problems only started showing up as frequently as it is right now a couple of months ago. Before that, troubleshooting was enough to fix the errors, but now I've tried everything the ASUS website has suggested, but to no avail.

My theory is that the LAN card is improperly connected. It cannot be *only* overheating since I've tried cleaning the fans myself with a toothbrush (only as a temporary fix, I know I need to get these cleaned professionally at least once a year).

If it helps, whenever I check the drivers through the device manager, it's always Code 45.
