Hi everybody, I recently changed my old gpu ( an xfx r7 260x ) for a gtx 760. When I put the new card in everything works fine except it says I need to plug in a Ethernet cable to connect to the internet but I have a wifi adapter. When I put in my old card the adapter works just fine again
Any help would be much appreciated

Does your adapter come with a driver? If so download the newest driver for it then install your new GPU. Once you've done that uninstall your adapter driver and install the driver you downloaded. See if that works. If your adapter didn't come with a driver click Start then Devices and Printers then find you adapter and uninstall it that way. Take out the adapter and then plug it back in and it should install the driver for it automatically. See if this works?
