I recently built a computer, but it turns out the motherboard (MSI 970 Gaming) didn't come with built-in WiFi, so I went out and bought a wireless USB adapter. The adapter is a Belkin N300 USB Wireless Adapter. The box came with a disc, of which I don't have an optical drive for. The adapter still worked without the`disc, so I left it as is. But I noticed that it wasn't really as fast as it could be. I decided to download the drivers for it to see if that would help. It told me to restart and I did. And now, the adapter doesn't work and I have no WiFi (also not able to use ethernet, but for other reasons).
I tried uninstalling the driver and restarting my computer. That didn't work, so I reinstalled the driver, still didn't work. But, in the device manager, the adapter in the list has a little warning sign next to it, but when I try to update the driver from there it says it's up to date. I also noticed that when I go to the properties it says "Windows cannot load the device driver for this hardware. The driver may be corrupted or missing. (Code 39) Object Name not found.)
I'm running Windows 10.
I need help on this. Thanks.
