I allowed my clueless sibling to set up my network card on the computer, and somehow things went wrong.

It's a wire board; the PC recognizes it, the built-in Ethernet port is turned off, and the drivers were saved from a CD that came with the board.
You might also clear the installed drivers, restart the device, and allow the operating system to reinstall them automatically. This can help restore the system to its original state if the issue persists. If this doesn't work, you'll need to search for the appropriate drivers based on your card and OS and retry the process.
I believe you've already attempted several fixes: removing drivers, rebooting, clearing the card, restarting again, then reinstalling both drivers and the board. It seems unlikely the issue lies with the cable, especially since it functions properly on your PS4.
Do you have Windows 10 installed? Could we retrieve the motherboard and NIC model numbers?
