Need help with installing a TP-Link TL-WN823N.
Couldn't install the device properly. I already tried uninstalling the previous drivers, disabling my antivirus software, restarting the computer. When I install the device it says that the device was properly installed and the computer needed to restart, but upon restarting, the device cannot be detected and it say the device did not install correctly.
- I tried this with several USB adapters to no avail, and the program for the TP-Link USB WPS cannot be uninstalled now;
- It says 802.11n NIC was not properly installed(or something similar);
- My previous adapter(Pro-Link) worked fine for several years but suddenly stopped working and was extremely hot when I pulled it out of the rear USB port.
I am using Windows 7 64bit:
Intel Core i5-3330MoBo - Gigabyte H61M-DS2 4.0Memory - 8 GB
I looked at the device manager and these three devices had the yellow exclamation point:
- 802.11n NIC
- PCI Simple Communications Controller
- SM Bus Controller
Tried updating the drivers for these but windows could not find corresponding drivers. I suspect my problem may be related to these.
Any help short of a Windows reinstall would be appreciated.
