Hello,
I acquired a new PC that I installed Linux on... The Wi-Fi didn't work on Linux so I reverted it back to Windows.
All my drivers are "dead" in the Device Manager, I count 17 including: Wi-Fi card, touchpad, touchscreen, sound.
How to provide more details? I don't know...
If you want other information instead of telling me to "elaborate", just ask me!
Best regards;
Dimitrouille

Configuration: Linux Ubuntu 14.04.3 LTS 64 bits. Browser: Firefox 64 bits. System:
Core i3, 8GB DDR3 RAM, 640GB HDD, AMD Radeon, 17" screen.

    Good evening,
    what do you mean by "All drivers dead"???
    A driver is never dead... nor alive for that matter.
    If you have reinstalled Windows, you simply need to install the drivers for your peripherals to make them work.
    To do this, you can go to the manufacturer's website for your machine and download the appropriate drivers for your version of Windows.
    OR, you can use a site that will automatically scan for drivers, like "driverscloud".

      Hello,
      I no longer have a Wi-Fi card, 17 unknown devices, the manufacturer's site only offers drivers for Windows 8.1 32 and 64, but I have Windows 10 x64. The drivers obtained from the "ASUS" manufacturer's site, I downloaded everything but it still doesn't work. Now the "driverscloud" site, formerly "ma-config.com", I can't access because I don't have internet. Can you give me a solution?

        I performed an offline detection on my config.com and now I'm waiting to see because it asked me to download the PCI card driver. I'm downloading it and I'll keep you posted.

      I installed the driver.
      But now it lists 16 unknown devices:
      Here are the details:
      "Device instance path:"
      ACPI\80860F41\1
      "Compatible IDs"
      ACPI\80860F41 and 80860F41

      And there are 15 of those, only the end changes: ACPI\80860F41\1,2,3,4,5,6,7,8,9,10,11,12...
      The last one is something else:
      "Device instance path:"
      ACPI\INT3406\2&DABA3FF&0

      This is the site where I can download the specific drivers for my computer, all downloaded, none of them work... ASUS doesn't even know the specifications of their own PCs... I don't know what to do anymore. It's even out of warranty, those assholes, and on "ma-config.com" it only asks me to download one driver, that's all... I have 16 that are bothering me and it only finds one!
