Using the device manager to try to install the driver by letting it do it manually gives me the message that there was no fitting driver found in the folder. The exclamation mark doesn't vanish, USB is still not working. For the USB-Controller: Installing the driver through its setup.exe works (as in the installation finishes), but does absolutely nothing.

I have downloaded the appropriate drivers from the ASUS website, but encounter the following issues: In the device manager, these two drivers which are still labeled with that yellow exclamation mark are labeled "Ethernet-Controller" and "USB-Controller". The sole exception is that horrible Windows 10 thing - I didn't download that update since I didn't want my computer nagging me with that white flag in the taskbar to upgrade. I should also add that Windows Update finished all its work, so all updates, including the SP1 and all security updates, are installed. I have two drivers left which I just can't seem to be able to install no matter what. It took me forever, but I managed to re-install most of them, but now I'm stuck. But, as expected, I have run into extreme driver troubles. I do absolutely not want to upgrade to another Windows version - part of why my father just bought the thing from someone he didn't know was because I was absolutely unable to find a new laptop which still came with WIndows 7 installed.Īny help would be really appreciated! Thank you so much!Īlright! I have formatted the harddrive now and reinstalled Windows, which worked well. My new laptop is an ASUS R900V currently running Windows 7 Premium.

what should I do? Is formatting the harddrive/a complete reset even possible at this point? I admit I am completely lost as to how to approach this because I never had to do something like that before. I do not own an original Windows 7 CD, I have absolutely no documents when it comes to the new laptop so also no Key I might need for a reinstalled Windows 7. All I found in the computer options was a "AI Recovery Burner" which allows me to create a set of DVDs for reboot/recovery, but I have severe doubts that will also include any drivers. If one of these things ever existed for my "new" computer but were just never given to me.

As I said, my old computer is, well, old, and I'm used to having a recovery CD for drivers and one for Windows included. The problem is that absolutely no recovery things were included. As I cannot tell which installed programs are needed and which aren't - I never had an ASUS before - a complete wipe seems like the best solution. When I booted it, I was shown a non-wiped harddrive also full of what I know as problematic software. My father had bought it on vacation, so I have unfortunately no methods of contacting the original owner.

I'm from Germany, so my English also isn't perfect, but it hopefully will be fine.īecause my old computer is on the verge of breaking, I have been given a used laptop as a gift. I hope someone here can help me, even if my question is probably completely stupid and might sound really inexperienced.
