I'm using this wi-fi card. If I go to the boot menu, it says that the slot is empty, although the card has power and it is connected.

Here's some options, first if the card is in the bottom PCI slot, under the graphics card, put in the top one just above the graphics card, second. The second option is that the wifi card is disabled so to fix this do the following steps, on you desktop, hold the windows, key and press x, the a little tab should come up on the bottom left corner, select device manger, go to network adaptors and click the little arrow on the left of it, find the wifi card, it should say the brand and model number, right click. It should either say enable or disable, don't press disable if it says disable, if it says enable press it and wait a few seconds and it should be enabled.

Sadly, none of these options worked. However, I looked around the internet and found that a lot of people have had the same problem, but it's just their graphics card. People on those threads were suggesting that the owner should update the BIOS, so that's what I did. I got my wi-fi card all working now.

Hi!

Just found a new easy solution for thoose who has problem with the PCE-AC68 WIFI card. What I did was actually easy, I moved my graphic card (MSI GeForce GTX 1070) from the bottom PCI-E slot to the top PCI-E 3 slot. If you take a look at the image you can see how my components are placed. Try this out.
