Replacing an xbox NIC yourself?

[hey_chris]

I've tested the lines and know that they are in good shape. The connection to the internet is up and stable. It stopped working the same night we had an electrical storm that also took out my cable modem so I guess I connected the two together.

At this point, the LED's on the NIC show no activity in either direction, and pinging it times out........

I'm open to other possibilities, but can't seem to come up with other options.

Either way, thanks for the input, wanted to know if it was even an option before I open the virgin box up.
