I Disabled My Media Smart Ex485 Nic On Whs 2011 And Need Help

$

I've accidentally disabled the NIC in my Media Smart Home Server EX485 that's set up and running Windows Home Server 2011.

 

I was going to try a technique using a USB keyboard and "devcon.exe" from a USB key but the command line I've seen:

 

c:\devcon.exe enable "PCI\VEN_1039&DEV_0191"

 

uses the device reference for the EX475 and I think the hardware is different enough in the EX485 that the above reference won't work.

 

I tried a couple of USB NICs to get access to it but of course they need a driver that isn't preinstalled (doesn't WHS2011 ship with these drivers?) nor would a USB - VHS adaptor work without the driver preinstalled... so... any help would be greatly appreciated (including a link to a "blind" keyboarding technique using something akin to "reboot / login / Winkey-R, ncpa.cpl downarrow downarrow enter"

 

Thanks in advance
