Hello,
I just finished building my new gaming pc but not matter what I try I cant get the wireless to work. I have a Gigabyte Z77X-UD5H Mobo and to connect to my router wirelessly I'm using an Alfa 1000mW Wireless USB adapter. My wireless network works as it runs on my laptop which I am using right now, but the light on the Alfa network adapter doesnt even turn on when plugged into my new desktop, while it does light up when plugged into my laptop. I installed the videocard and mobo drivers for my system, so I am at a loss as to what to do... Any advice?
