Ethernet Controller issue, cant install drivers or detect devices

[maxie]

Do not scan just Reboot ... You did Install the Chipset Driver ? ...

 

[Zypheus]

yes installed the chipset driver already , uninstalled and reboot , same stuff happens , when the pc tries to install the driver on its own , it fails .

Select the Realtek Adapter then Property's ... What does it say there this Device is working ? ....


You did Uninstall the other Adapter and not just the Driver ? ...

 

[Zypheus]

you mean the realtek PCIe GBE Family Controller? if u mean that yes , it says this device is working properly.

yep i right clicked and uninstall the ethernet controller with the yellow exclamation mark , is there other things i have to uninstall? But that ethernet controller will pop up once again after i reboot.

Yes I did mean the realtek PCIe GBE Family Controller ... What is the if any error message you get when trying to connect with that ? ...

It is very weird that the other Adapter keeps Re-Installing

 

[Zypheus]

what do you mean by connecting with that? because by right the ethernet controller should show as TP-link wireless N adapter(or other adapter driver name) for my case as its the driver for my ethernet card adapter . Think its suppose to be another driver other than the realtek one.

 

[maxie]

Your Adapter is Realtek® 8111F, 1 x Gigabit LAN Controller which should be connected to your Router by cable ...

 

[Zypheus]

my router is quite far away from my pc , so i have no choice but to use wireless connection, thus the ethernet card adapter or the usb adapter.

 

[Zypheus]

anyone got any other idea about how to solve this?

 

[Zypheus]

Hi , thanks for the help , i have tried installing the different drivers possible for the ethernet adapter , but all of them just failed to be installed. seems like something is trying to stop my ethernet drivers from being installed , since all other type of drivers is working.

What is the exact Model Number of your USB Adapter ? ...

Its a Asmedia XHCI controller , dont think its related?

I can also try have a look. As for the Unknown Device (the XHCI controller) don't know if related either but have you tried installing the Asmedia USB 3.0 driver from ASUS web site?

Im not using the USB adapter , the problem already existed when i was using the ethernet adapter card.

The model of the card is 300Mbps Wireless N PCI Adapter TL-WN851N.

 

[Zypheus]

something miraculously happen just now , after letting my comp sit for awhile , i decided to try and uninstall the ethernet controller from the device manager , after which i right click and scan for new hardware. It shows scanning for plug and play compliant hardware and it got connected! How did it happen im not sure.

But I was doubtful that it was really working , so i went to restart my comp to see if it will reconnect again and everything happens again , driver software unable to install . Even after the uninstalling and rebooting and trying to install driver again , none works.

Can you post your MotherBoard Model?
I am thinking it is your chipset driver that is having an issue.

Motherboard model is Asus M5a99x evo r2.0 .

I have already installed the latest chipset driver from the asus website. So not sure if it can still be the issue?

 

[maxie]

Your Chipset is not the problem you have the latest Driver already Installed ...

Neither is the Ethernet Controller Driver the issue that is up to date also ...


So it would seem that the Ethernet Controller must be faulty ...


That is why I asked you what Model your USB Adapter is ... So as we could try getting that working ...

i see, you have overclocked your rig.
it may have damaged some of your components.

I just have something in mind. how about going back to that old CPU, then check if the ethernet controller will be installed.
