Crashing during gaming

[Carson_C]

Yea I didn’t even think of putting it in until you asked about it. Yea I downloaded the drivers from intel’s site as well. No AV, I’ve never run one other than windows defender on both of my pcs.

Any problems at all since you installed the correct drivers and restarted, if not, would leave as is for now and see how things go, any problem/s we can either test your hardware or you can try swapping in the wireless card first, entirely your choice but do be sure to uninstall the Intel wireless drivers before you fit the add on wireless device.

Updating the driver appeared to work at first then it started crashing after a few hours. I finally got around to slotting in the old pcie wifi adapter and the problem seems to be gone for now. I guess this is a temporary fix until I can setup a wired connection.

From your reply #16;

I downloaded the drivers from intel’s site

The drivers should have been downloaded from MSI here and not direct from Intel, the drivers may well be custom written for your specific MB.

Interesting, I downloaded all the mobo drivers from here, which doesn’t even have some the drivers. I tried Installing these instead and I still experience the same crashes. Also experiencing them while using the old wifi adapter as well, I just got a lucky stretch I suppose.

Did you uninstall all the old/previous wireless drivers before installing the new ones.

Can we have a new MTB log.
