Hi! I deleted the Qualcomm Atheros 61×4 Wireless driver from my laptop in hopes of fixing my network issues. But now I'm unable of reinstalling it. I've tried by looking for changes in the hardware, but nothing shows up. I looked for the driver on Acer's page, copied it to a USB and then passed it to my laptop. I then followed the steps for installation, and restarted my laptop after it was done. However, once it restarted, the driver did not appear as installed and the laptop was slower than before. I have an Acer Apspire V Nitro in Windows 8. Continue reading...

Win 8 & not Win 10
by Guest TimFontenot- 0 replies
- 171 views
My HP computer does NOT like Windows 10. Been there, tried that, bought the t-shirt. SO ... I reverted to Windows 8. Now Microsoft wants me to get Windows 10. My computed has not changed. So, why should I attempt installing Win 10? I need Microsoft to continue supporting Win 8. Before the local computer fix-it store modified my machine, it would fail often (Blue Screen). Now - it still fails to a blue screen, just less often. I can't tell you HOW ANNOYING THIS IS. Perhaps a Microsoft tech could access my computer, run a 'really good' diagnostic, and tell me the problem(s), then fix it at a 'reasonable' cost. Continue reading...
