IE it seems now that whenever the wlan adapter driver is installed, it kills the mouse driver.I just bought a brand new asus ac3200 router so of course I need a new wireless adapter card for my desktop.I settled on the TP-Link 1750AC adapter to plug in one of my space pcie slots on my ASRock Z87M Extreme 4 mobo.
Broadcom 802.11Ac Network Adapter Asus Driver Is InstalledI choose the pcie slot 4 as the only other valid option (slot 3) would have it butting up to the fans on my 970gtx. I started up the computer, noticed the lights on the new card came on and windows started fine. The ASUS PCE-AC68 is an industry-leading native 802.11ac Wi-Fi 3 x 3 PCI-E adapter for your desktop. My computer build has been extremely stable, and I have actually never seen a hard freeze in Windows 10, not a crash or anything, just a locked freeze. Upon restart, the computer would again freeze the moment before the login screen would come up, on rare occasion actually making it to the splash. This makes sense as that is the first moment networking is initialized. Roughly 50 of the time, the computer would bluescreen with a DPAWATCHDOGERROR after 10 or so seconds and reboot, the other times it would just stay frozen (or my patience would run out). I can simply boot into safe mode and uninstall the driver (which is completely successfully installed as far as the device manager is concerned and is correctly identifying the card) and the computer returns to normal operation. I have now tried 4 different broadcom wlan drivers for windows 10 x64 and they all have the exact same result. Are all the wlan broadcom drivers still really this crap Surely there cant just not be windows 10 drivers for wlan adapters still. What should I do Try the other pcie slot Assume the card is DOA Perform some sort of ritualistic dance Does anyone have a similar set-up confirmed working Thanks for the suggestions I really thought we had it licked there for a second. Broadcom 802.11Ac Network Adapter Asus Software Detected SeveralThe driver booster software detected several drivers that needed to be updated including the broadcom wlan driver. I installed all the necessary drivers leaving the broadcom for last. Everything installed fine, I rebooted and everything remained fine. I disconnected my external wlan adapter and went into the network and sharing center to connect using the new internal AC adapter. Then everything froze, and once again, began freezing on every reboot. Unfortunately, the who crashed application isnt going to do anything as the computer freezes so hard no dump is written. Wouldnt that point to a hardware fault within the new wlan adapter I really wish I understood what condition resulted it in not freezing for 5min after the initial driver booster installation. One more interesting tidbit, my Logitech G900 driver started having issue in the middle of all this. ![]() The more interesting part of this is that when Im running windows 10 in safe mode to uninstall the wlan driver the G900 mouse has not worked in the last 5 renditions.
