Hello,

I was given a newer PC than my old one (desktop PC).
It's running Windows 7 Pro, 64 bit.
I'm trying to reinstall my Wi-Fi dongle and here it gets stuck. Although it worked with my old PC, it recognizes the dongle, but it's impossible to install the driver. I've checked all the forums, downloaded tons of drivers, but when I try to update the driver and go to look for it, Windows couldn't find the driver...
Do you have a solution? Windows update? But the computer isn't connected...

Thanks in advance,

Lp

    Hello,

    Go to Start
    In the Search bar
    Type --> devmgmt.msc and OK.

    Provide the hardware ID of the device
    Look at this --> Find the device identification number
    Post the number in your next message.

    Hello and thank you
    I don't know if my last message went through.
    But everything is much better except that Windows is blocking the installation because the driver is not signed?????
    Is there a way to bypass this..

    Thank you

    Look at this --> Install an unsigned driver

      Thank you, I feel like we're almost there.
      But no matter how I do the task in run and type the phrase, it still says not signed...

    After typing this in Run --> bcdedit /set nointegritychecks ON
    Did you restart the PC?

      Yes, unfortunately. I did restart it, but nothing. And while browsing the internet, I see that I'm not the only one stuck at this stage...

    You're welcome.

    This driver comes from the Microsoft site

    Don't forget to reactivate driver signature verification
    Type in run --> bcdedit /set nointegritychecks OFF

    Have a nice day.

      Yes, I had already done it.
      But how did you know it was that one?
      I really insist, thank you.
      I struggled for so long with this problem!
      Have a good evening.

    No. identifier: USB\VID_079B&PID_004A
    The device is an AR5007UG
    Driver link --> Microsoft catalog
    For 64-bit, it's the 2nd one.
