So I was just installing some drivers for my wireless router and I accidentally clicked the wrong one. Now, my PC would just blue screen every time I plugged my router into the USB port and I don't know how to delete the driver I installed as I can't have the device plugged in.I can either use my PC without internet, or not at all.
View 1 RepliesI have a new Netgear USB wireless router I want to install. When I attempt to run the Netgear Windows10-version installation software for the Driver, the installation crashes with the "Windows Install Error 1603" notification. I cannot figure out what this means, except something to do with the Installer being unable to load the driver. The router IS rrecognized in Device Manager, but with a yellow warning that "Windows could not load the driver".
EVERYTHING else on my desktop is working just great, not a problem anywhere.
Netgear Live Chat support is stumped; they told me to get another unit. Well, I have done that already! The strange thing is that BOTH these routers are INSTANTLY recognized by my laptop running Windows 10 just like my Desktop is. The problem AIN'T the router! Something in Win 10 on my Desktop isn't right, and I need to find out what to do to fix it.
This error is why i could never run Windows 8.1 on my machine and it seems to of transferred over to windows 10 too. My PC boots fine everything's working but usually if i am doing something like watching a YouTube video or on my PS4 playing online my internet will cut off and my wireless with have the Square box with a red cross, if i unplug my adapter and plug it back in it comes back on. But its a bit frustrating when I'm playing a multiplayer game on my PC or chatting on Skype for my adapter to crash. I've had this issue with my old netgear wireless adapter and this one.
It happens around 2-5 times an hour, i looked it up and I've tried many fixes some of which include:
Setting power settings to Max Performance.
Setting the Adapter to not turn off to save power
Reinstalling drivers
Turning off Bluetooth
I have looked in the Windows Event Log and i seem to get 2 events every time this occurs and they say:
WLAN Extensibility Module has stopped.
Module Path: C:WINDOWSSystem32cmihvsrv64.dll
and
The network interface "ASUS USB-AC53 802.11ac Wireless USB Adapter" has begun resetting. There will be a momentary disruption in network connectivity while the hardware resets.
Reason: The network driver requested that it be reset.
This network interface has reset 15 time(s) since it was last initialized.
I like Windows 10 but i can't use it if my internet keeps cutting out randomly.
I upgraded from Win 7 to 10 and now I can only connect one wireless device at a time. All of the wireless devices that I used at the same time in Win 7 work in Win 10 but, now only one at a time.
View 1 RepliesMy Skype crashes everytime I try to open it up. The "This program is not responding error". I recently installed Windows 10 and it was working fine at first but it crapped out after only a couple days. I tried clean installing it and that didn't work.
View 1 RepliesI installed Win 10 on my home server and it keeps crashing all the time with random BSODs (with a bunch of different error messages). Before that, it was running fine on Win Home Server 2011.
I tried a bunch of driver combinations (the default ones, the ones from ATI, the ones from Asrock, ...). Unfortunately, nothing solved the issue. Memtest is OK.
The hardware is an old-ish ASRock A780GXH/128M motherboard with a Phenom CPU.
so last night I fell asleep at my laptop, my girlfriend took it off me put she didn't shut it down, she just closed it. Now today I opened her up and I knew that it needed to be restarted, so windows froze and I thought, that probably because its been on all night, so I hard shut it down with the power button. However now when I boot it, it boots fine, but windows is horribly slow, so much that it crashes,
View 1 RepliesMy Windows 10 (64bit) has always had issues with "page fault in nonpaged area" errors, usually when rebooting from sleep. Yesterday, my system crashed again again. Instead of booting up as normal, it crashed again with the same error, rebooted, and crashed again. My computer can no long boot to Windows.
I've searched online and have seen that it could be my RAM, so I tried running one stick at a time and it didn't work. I also tried to use a bootable flash drive (made with Media Creation Tool) to reformat my hard drive / reinstall Windows 10, but I get the same error/crash when I boot from the flash drive.
Here's my system specs:
CPU: Intel I-4790k
RAM: G.Skill RIPJAW 2x8GB
MOTHERBOARD: Asus Z97-A ATX LGA1150

My computer seems to crash randomly when I have 2 or 3 programs running at once, need instructions to provide necessary information and data to see what may be causing the issue?
View 5 RepliesMy build is unstable and I upgraded... 1st time around and it was for the most part stable. I had some lag issues; when system was left to idle, system would not respond or the system would take forever to perform tasks, and hardware install issues; plug and play pick up and drop. Couple of blue Screens, I run a custom build over clocked and it is my first one so I expected this to happen.
So I decided to do a clean install

Ran admin command prompt sfc /scannow with no errors.

my probably 13 fresh install config., would really like some insight into what might be happening to cause these system lockup issues, reading and posting on forms from my smart phone isn't the finest thing to do.
My computer was just fine and today I turn on my computer and a blue screen says "your pc ran into a problem. We'll restart for you. Error: system thread exception not handled"
How do I fix this and get my computer back? I don't even know how to get into safe mode.
Upgraded to W10x64. All is well and working BUT when I put the system to sleep it restarts after a short time.

In my computer I use Windows 10 x64 and I have 6 GB of RAM installed. I face the problem of high usage of Ram from System process. Although I hear that this is something normal for Windows 10, this tends to freeze my PC or prompts me to close running programs although I do not have that much open. I updated all my drivers, I also tried everything proposed in various solutions around the web but the problem still exists. Could it be some update of Microsoft? A friend of mine running Windows 7 with 8GB RAM installed in his computer, faces the same problem the last weeks too.
View 1 RepliesRecently I've installed Windows 10 on a Dell Inspiron 17. It had had a preinstalled Ubuntu. When installing Windows, I deleted the Ubuntu partition, leaving only the one for system recovery and the one called DIAGS, I think.
Now everytime the system is loading, for a split second I get the Windows Boot Menu screen that's cut from the top. See : [URL] ....
After that, the system loads just fine. What is it and how do I get rid of it?
I have 3 PC's on my home network ( hard wired ). Two PC's are now Win 10, one still Win 8. Neither of the Win 10 PC's can access the router admin page. When I input the IP I get a prompt confirming it is the correct router and it requires ID and password. However, when I input this the browser just sits with the "hourglass" spinning round. Occasionally, it does access the router, but the pages are incomplete. Access the page via the Win 8 is fine. I use the same AV prog on all PC's but have tried deactivating the AV and Firewall on the Win 10 PC's, but still no access.
The Win 10 PC has full internet access, and is otherwise working fine. I can also access the router admin page wirelessly via my smartphone.I have read a few similar posts here and tried rebooting router and PC's several times, but still no access.Not a major headache since I can get access via the Win 8 PC, but I had intended upgrading that one to Win 10 too, but now not so sure.
I am having a weird day with my Windows 10 Pro PC. I had to reset it earlier, and it is throwing a tantrum about it.
I can connect to the internet just fine through my phone's Wi-Fi hotspot, but when I attempt to connect to my router to use my home Wi-Fi connection, it connects but says it has no internet connection. There are no less than 4 other computers, 3 phones, and 2 tablets which all use this connection (the router, that is) regularly (2 computers are on it right now) with no issues at all.
When I attempt to use the router, it says it's connected, but has no internet. I would think that would mean no outside internet connection, but network access... but I can't even access the router's homepage.
Router is a Mikrotik Routerboard RB951Ui-2HnD provided by my ISP. I have tried rebooting both the router and the PC several times with no success and I just finished a clean install of Windows, again with zero results.

Since up grading to windows 10 I can no longer access my router setup page. When I type in the address nothing happens the little circle just keeps spinning. I tried chrome and get the same thing. I also tried from 2 different computers, both running windows 10. the router is an ASUS AC router.

View 1 RepliesI just replaced my old router (Linksys WRT54G) to a Linksys x1000. However, my download speed is slower than the previous router I had. I tried the following things to resolve this problem:
Upgrading to the latest firmware version;Updated my wireless network card drivers to the latest version;Switching between different channels (channel 1 and 5 and default channel). I have set Network Mode to: Mixed and I set Channel Width to Automatic (20 or 40 MHz).
When using my old router I had an average download speed of 1 MB/sec while using the new router I can't get pas 500 KB/sec. In both cases I was sitting next to the router.
Oh, and by the way, there's also a port on the router named DSL. It looks like it doesn't matter whether I connect that port to my modem. How come? What's its function?
i have been suffering slow WiFi speeds for a while now and sky have replaced my router.
I have two computers both running windows 10 with the latest build
Now since i started with this router i have lost my home network and i have not changed anything on the computer
Some times i can see my other computer but not able to connect to it. sometimes i can see nothing. sometimes i can see the sky router and sometimes not.
My network is set to private on both computers and file and printing is turned on.
All i have done is plugged in a new router.
Sometimes i can see on my network a device called AirTies WAP what is this.
After doing a google search i found that AirTies WAP is something to do with my Sky wireless booster. is that right.
I am not able to see the other computer it says error 0x80070035
How to uninstall My WiFi Router safely and completely from my laptop?
View 5 RepliesI have an ASUS 2 speed router - it worked fine in Win 7, allowing me to target the 5.2 MHz stream toward my TV for streaming, and use the 2.5 MHz speed for the computers, tablets & phones.
Well, I lost my motherboard, and purchased a CPU with Windows 10. I cannot tell what the router is doing - Windows 10 seems to think I do not require this information, and will not allow me to even SEE the router settings, let alone change them. The stream to the TV seems fine - the CPU internet is slow.
Anyway - how I can access the router settings!
