    I got it back working.
    Long story short, I went to the bios and it was disabled. I feel stupid, didn’t think about looking there sooner.
    I don’t understand how the initial script could have disabled the card in the bios… but that’s it.

    That’s not typically a place where we tend to think about much, but yes, the BASIC input/output system (that’s one simple way to think of it), controls all input and output, so if it is not enabled, nothing at all responds; it’s the connector between the physical devices and the other controlling device, the CPU.

    Glad you figured it out; diagnosing issues is not a natural thing unless you are either a hardware or software engineering type.
    In any case, you did a very good job figuring this out; congratulations!
