Windows 7 Failing After Addition Of New Wireless Networking Card?
Jun 18, 2012
I have put together my first computer build and so far ive got everything to work, without any major issues ive installed windows 7 64-bit and then motherboard drivers and graphics card and havent had any issues using the different features of windows 7. I then decided to get a 300Mbps Wireless Networking PCI Express Adapter from TP-Link to get access to the internet i already have in the house. I inserted the card in one of two approporiate PCI slots on the motherboard (Asus Sabretooth z77) that was next to the graphics card. But when i turned on the computer and windows 7 started up it started a full system reparation (my systems in swedish, "startreparation" in english windows?) for what reason i have no idea as it came up with no solution and all i could do was restart and try again, but to no avail.

Over the last few days I have been getting random and very intermittent BSOD's for the first time with Windows 7 x64.
Each BSOD during the memory dump before rebooting was making a reference that it couldn't start up my video driver or something in that nature. I have a nVidia evga 9800 GX2 with 190.37 drivers.
After a BSOD this morning, same reference as above, windows rebooted but resolution was 640x480, a quick look under device manager showed both GPU's on my 9800 GX2 had been stopped due to a problem with exclamation marks beside them but oddly I still had a display.
After the next reboot, I couldn't get into windows anymore. Not windows 7, or XP, or leopard (I am Triple Booting) I CAN however get in via safemode but my troubleshooting is not revealing much cause in safe mode, those drivers are naturally disabled.
The event viewer under administrative tools, showed a kernel-power reference during my last couple BSOD's which I believe is just me hitting the reset button when the computer was freezing up. There are no other critical references.
My initial thoughts is that something in the video card was slowly beginning to go, hence the casual BSOD's over the past couple days and now that's it. BUT the odd thing is that ALL the LED's on my video card are showing correctly, ie, if there was some kind of internal problem, there are a couple of them that should be showing red or yellow, but they are not.
Anyone have anyway of diagnosing that it is indeed my video card that is failing? Could it be the motherboard? Also, in safe mode in Windows 7, I tried reinstalling the 190.37 drivers but no changes.
Thoughts? Questions?
PS - I have tried startup (repair) and I have tried restoring to an earlier point. No changes. I am still in safe mode.

I have a new Desktop running Win 7 64 Bit and a laptop running Win 7 32 Bit. The desktop is hard-wired to my router and the laptop is connected to my WI-FI network, along with my printers and back-up drive. I would like to set up a homegroup so I can share files between them and hopefully synch my two Outlook Contact files and back both up on my Buffalo back-up hardrive. How can I enable the two computers to see one another? Also how do I change the name of my laptop?

I recently purchased a Belkin wireless network adapter for my HP windows 7 computer, and the checkout woman said it would work.
Unfortunately, it does not work. at first, it was just dodgy, connecting with only a small connection. It started getting better, but it would always cut out after a while.
A friend of mine tried to fix it, using lots of methods including the xlink kai method and others including downloading the drivers and another one which I can't remember. None have worked.
Has anyone got a really easy, fool-proof, easy understandable way to make this work please?

Quite spontaneously and for no apparent reason, I can no longer copy/paste a simple "add contents of 2 cells" to empty cells (e.g. e3+d4, to the next cells down the column, etc.). No matter what I do it will only copy the actual contents i.e. the result of the previous calculation. What I have tried:-
1. Deleting all contents and formats from the range of cells and starting over;
2. Using the drop-down menu of the paste button to select the "paste-special / formula" option (which keeps jumping back to the first default option at the top of the list);
3. Running the Office diagnostics built-in software off the microsoft top-left button to detect faults and anomalies - Nothing works and I am at a loss.......most peculiar...........

I'm having this odd problem where Windows 7 autodetects my wireless network card just fine (Asus WL-160N). There are no proper Windows 7 drivers as its an old card, it seems to use the same one as I got from the asus website.
However, when I try to run ANYTHING that needs a net connection, like my antivirus install program, it tells me that it cannot detect a network card. As a matter of fact, there is no wireless networking tab under networking, and there is not even wireless zero service running. On top of that, it does not even try to detect my router (Asus RT-NI6), again, because it thinks there is no card.
I don't know much about Windows 7, having only had it a couple weeks. With no wireless its worse than useless to me.
I have installed the software that came with the card, and it does nothing. Even tried running it in XP and Vista mode (as admin user). I have only the basic install from the dvd, with no wired connection currently available. The only internet i have is on my XP system, that is too unstable (thats why I wanted to upgrade to Windows 7). Obviously I'm missing something, but no clue.
Edit: the card and the router work fine in XP, no problems. Wireless zero in XP is an issue, so I have to use the control center program from asus.

Have XP on C drive and looking to install Win 7 on 2nd Sata drive for dual boot. However, when installing a 2nd Sata drive my XP bios identifies it correctly as a Sata drive but my PC Disk management recognises it as a Removeable disk preventing me from installing Win 7. I have tried a couple of different Sata disks with the same result.

Installed new hard drive and Windows 7, wireless card shows up as unknown device.I was having major stability issues with windows. I wanted a new hard drive so i installed it and a new copy of windows. The wireless worked fine before, and ethernet works fine now. It shows up in device manager as other devices, network controller with a yellow exclamation mark. I have gone to Dell to install the driver. It almost finishes then says you do not have a recognized wireless device.
My comp is a Dell Inspiron M5010, I installed windows 7 HP 64 bit same as what was on before. WHDPC, K5Y6D are the numbers I have found for the card. I have tried several different drivers and all have the same error.
how to get windows to recognize the card so the drivers I install will recognize it? There are many threads about this in various places, but none of the solutions work.

im upgrading my inspiron 8600 to 2 gb ram and windows 7 already installed 7. everything works fine except the wireless. the adapter from the factory is Intel P/C WM3A2100NADELL.....model WM#A2100......DELL P/N 09y200...........REV A01 the XP driver doesn't work. the dell support site only lists xp as an operating system for the 8600. this computer has been used very little and contains the Pentium M chip known to be a low heat processor, so i'm willing to warm it up a bit with windows 7. the operating system is working fine and i don't hear my fan coming on. just need a driver for the wireless. wired works fine.

So i've been trying to figure out why the new computer I've built is freezing up randomly during operation. So far I've: Flashed an updated bios version, Run Memtest86+, and have been systematically uninstalling hardware. I think i've found the though, and it's the Linksys Wireless-G PCI adapter (WMP54G).
Once i removed this piece of hardware, the issue vanished. I looked online for some information and i found that the Ralink chipset Linksys uses has driver issues with 64bit windows 7 at 4gb+ ram.
So, what i basically want to know is, is there a good pci wireless adapter for 64bit windows that won't suck?
And no, i can't use an Ethernet cable, I split the Internet with my neighbors (apartment) and i'm the one w/o the router.

I recently installed Windows 7, and most seemed to be fine. However, I just moved to college for the semester and I usually use wireless at school. I have a wireless card/adapter and it used to work fine on XP, but Windows 7 doesn't seem to recognize it at all. I checked device manager and the only network adapter is 'NVIDIA nForce Networking Controller'. Under 'Other devices' is 'Network Controller' with a little '!' next to it. This may be the wireless card, but I don't know how to make it work.I really need to get this wireless working, otherwise I could be screwed. I never removed the card so it should be in there. Not sure why windows 7 is not recognizing it (in fact, I used to get annoyed when the 'Wireless network detected' bubble popped up on XP. Now I want nothing more!)

I have an ASUS PCE-N13 Wireless PCI-Express Adapter. This is my second wireless network card and I do not believe they were both defective. My device manager does not detect that card and I installed the driver on the CD that came with the network card. Only a wired connection with an X mark shows on my task bar.

Okay, so I'm using Windows 7 64-Bit. It's flawless, and a bit of a show off, seeming as it already had all of the necessary drivers for all my PC components pre-installed. :P
One issue is the network card. I had a Netgear WPN311 card before, which I couldn't find the right drivers for, so I decided to put my old Belkin F5D7000 into the PCI port.
So.. basically.. I don't have any way of getting online, because I am literally unable to find drivers that suit Windows 7 64-Bit, and at the same time work on this Belkin card.
So this is the one thing I'm confused with.. The PC seems to pick it up as a 'Multimedia' device under device manager. I am completely at a loss what to do with it, and it's becoming very frustrating. If anyone can help me out, tell me what drivers to use for this or the Netgear one if that so happens to be necessary, I would be very, very grateful.

I have a new system running win7 64-bit, and so far I have not been able to get it to connect to the Internet using a PCI wireless card or usb adapter.
So in the interim, I'm trying to get it to connect via an access point functioning as a bridge. I've confirmed that the bridge works because it successfully connects my laptop (running windows XP) to the net.
However, when I plug in the same connection to my win7 system, it doesn't work. I've gone one step back and tested the Ethernet connection directly from the router, and that works. So I've confirmed that the Ethernet port is working properly.
It's just that when I plug in the bridge connection to the Ethernet port, it doesn't work.
Anybody got any ideas? How come my bridge works with my laptop, but not my new PC?

I have seen this in a couple of forums, but could not find an adequate solution. I am having an issue connecting to wireless networks via the Atheros AR5007EG. I have tried going to atheros.cz among other sites looking for a working driver, but Windows 7 always says the driver is up to date. Strangely, I tooled around a few weeks ago and it was working, but it stopped. I went back and made sure I didn't install anything that day and nothing was installed.

My brother has a laptop - wireless network card just stopped . I am going to:
1. Uninstall network card and reboot to see if the system picks it back up.
2. Update the drivers.
3. Check for Malware.
If they don't work then I'll do a restore point.If all the above doesn't work what would you suggest before getting a new network card - presuming it can be replaced and not an on board type ?? System recovery ?

I have an IBM Thinkpad T40 with Windows 7 Ultimate. I have all the updates from both Windows Update and Lenovo. Everything is working great except that I can't seem to get my wireless PC card to work still. It's a Trendnet TEW-421PC card. Windows found the driver for the card but it still doesn't work. I even downloaded the driver from Trendnet's website and installed it and it doesn't work. The "Activity" light blinks continuously and Windows detects the card but I can't seem to get it to connect to the internet. I had Windows troubleshoot it and it says there is a problem but none of the solutions seem to help. I can connect to the internet with an ethernet cable but sometimes I like to connect wirelessly.
