Wasn't quite sure what forum to post this in but here goes ;-;.

 

My friend passed me a PCI-E Expansion Card (http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16815129016), and I've been having troubled getting the drivers to work (I think). 

 

The Card provides power to everything I plug into it but the devices aren't recognized in windows. Iv'e tried re-installing the card a few times using the drivers from the visiontek website, I have also checked that the card is firmly plugged into the PCI-E slot, and that everything is in the correct place. A couple re-installs in the card worked for a couple minutes but then stopped working.

 

Not sure where to go from this point, attached is a ss of my device manager, any help would be appreciated.

It´ll open a small window. 

Search for the Keywords "Pci express" and "Usb" and disable both.
