I removed my Qualcomm Atheros Performance Suite and currently have no network adapters. How do i get it back???

TAccoman · Jul 10, 2015

So this past weekend there was a bad lightning storm when I decided to unplug all of my electronics. When it was all over, once my pc was back up, it would not connect to the internet via lan.
I had accidentally deleted the QAPS before but managed to reinstall it from the driver disc that came with my M87 G45 Gaming mis mb.
However, when I tried reinstalling it from the disc this time, the LAN driver option was greyed out. And if I try Killer from the disc files it brings up and error "You must have proper Killer hardware installed in order to install Killer Performance Suite."

No now I have no network adapters in my device manager to add drivers to. What do I do?????
Thank you

TAccoman :

I tried to Google the mobo that you have listed. Apparently there is no such animal as a "M87 G45 Gaming" mobo. could it be a "Z87 G45 Gaming"? If I had the correct mobo model, I could find the drives online.

Do you have the onboard NIC enabled in the BIOS?

Yes Z87 is what I meant sorry.
Yes the NIC is enabled.

Go to THIS PAGE and download "Killer Network Driver (driver only)" and install it.

I have the driver on a usb already but I do not know what to do with it.

Also let me know if I am leaving any details out so I can try and better explain.

TAccoman :

Go to Start>Control Panel>Hardware and Sound>Devices and Printers. Select your computer from the list. Double click on your computer. Select "Properties". In the Properties box, select the "Hardware" tab. Find your NIC and select it. Click on Properties in the lower right. When the Properties come up, select the "Driver" tab. Click on the button in the list which says "Update Driver". Click on the option to "Let me pick from a list of device drivers on my computer." Browse to your flash drive and select the Killer Driver. It should be self explanatory from here.

I do not see any network controller options in my computers hardware list.
If I open up device manager I don't have Network Adapter either.

After more research I found this

and tried bob_mills solution with no luck.

Connect your pc to a network cable

TAccoman · Jul 11, 2015

Cazauxx :

It is connected.

Y0GI · Jul 11, 2015

If no one else comes up with an answer, I would contact MSI tech support. You may have a defective mobo.

Y0GI :

Try opening network and sharing center, on the left choose change adapter settings, If anything is disabled right click and enable them. If you are still having issues on network and sharing center click troubleshoot problems.

Hope this helps

Cazauxx :

When going into Change adapter settings nothing populates but a blank page which I have never seen before.
Afterwards I ran the troubleshooter for network adapter and as expected it says there is no driver for my network adapter. The issue still remains that I do not have any Network Adapter to add drivers to, or so it seems.
If I do I am unable to find where.

If you have tried all of the suggested solutions above, and it still doesn't work, I suggest that you start a new thread. Kinda hard to advise two different ppl with two different systems on the same thread. It gets very confusing!
