Optiplex 3020 network adapter missing?
Had to replace a HD & reinstall OS & have no LAN adapter present.
It shows as enabled in the BIOS
Driver installed with no error messages
Plugging in a cable shows activity, yellow & green lights flashing
Nothing present under device manager or in network connections
Not sure if this was an issue previously, as I was given computer with no HD & told to re-purpose it.
Any suggestions?
Running Windows 10

Windows 10 should automatically install all necessary network drivers including LAN for your system. you said green yellow lights were on which seem to suggest hardware is functional. did you install Win 10 yourself and was it a clean install?
take a picture of your Win 10 screen right lower bottom and post it. compare to pic in this link to let us know what the symptom is.
