    Asus P8Z77-V Pro WiFi connection problem

    I checked a number of times before if the computer is appearing on the router. I highly doubt that it is especially given that both devices have to be in extremely close proximity to each other to get a signal at all. I guess it is time for an RMA.

    Asus P8Z77-V Pro WiFi connection problem

    I disabled the Microsoft Virtual WiFi Miniport Adapter to no success in getting connected to the wireless network. I also checked what you asked me to check and everything things is set as should be.

    Asus P8Z77-V Pro WiFi connection problem

    I tried it and it did not work. In addition there is no setting in the BIOS that allows me switch between client mode and access point mode. However, there is the wi-engine utility that runs under Windows that allows me to switch my wifi adapter between client and access point modes. When I...

    When I run "ipconfig /all" the wireless adapter shows DHCP and autoconfiguration enabled, but does not show an IPV4 address, subnet mask, nor default gateway.

    Asus P8Z77-V Pro WiFi connection problem

    My wireless adapter is a module that plugs into a slot where the back i/o is situated. The adapter must be installed before seating the motherboard into the case. After the PC is put together, the antenna plugs in with a short cable into a connector exposed on the back i/o plate of the completed...

    Asus P8Z77-V Pro WiFi connection problem

    I built a PC for the first time last autumn with an ASUS P8Z77-V Pro motherboard. The Artheros AR9485 wireless network adapter included with the motherboard worked fine at home with the wireless router (a Linksys E4200). I moved the PC to a different residence where it used a wired connection...

    Game Performance Issues (Radeon HD 7970)

    I have had "Frame Rate Control" set to "Off unless application specifies" from the beginning. When I do gauge frame rate, I have in-game v-sync settings disabled. That said V-sync is certainly not the culprit.

    Game Performance Issues (Radeon HD 7970)

    During the fall of 2012 I completed a first time PC build. Since then, I have not been absolutely certain on whether my system is performing as it should in intensive games including the Crysis series and Battlefield 3. If my system is underperforming I am suspecting a hardware issue with my...

    First Time PC Build- DRAM LED on ASUS mobo (potential issue with mobo or RAM)

    Here is an update. The individual who helped me put the computer together brought two power supply testers and a cheap power supply. We tested both power supplies. The cheap power supply passed the testing while mine failed. The -5V light on first power supply tester would light up on the cheap...

    First Time PC Build- DRAM LED on ASUS mobo (potential issue with mobo or RAM)

    There is something I did not mention as I did not think of it. The CPU LED turns on for a second or two then goes off when the power is first switched on. This has occurred with the replacement motherboard I have now. I do not recall this happening with the mobo I sent back. ASUS tech support...

    First Time PC Build- DRAM LED on ASUS mobo (potential issue with mobo or RAM)

    When I was on the phone with ASUS tech support. They had my supervisor and I do just that with the exception of taking the motherboard out of the case. What difference would taking out of case make? Is it that there could be a problem with the way it was mounted in the standoffs? If I was to...

    First Time PC Build- DRAM LED on ASUS mobo (potential issue with mobo or RAM)

    Almost all of that has been tried to no success when I got on the phone with ASUS. The only thing that was not tired was putting the single stick of RAM in multiple slots. The ASUS tech support rep had my helper and I test the RAM in a specific slot. Trying another PSU means having to buy...
