Can't Install Network Controller Driver

Windows 10 pro 64bit
Msi gaming 7
i7 4790k
R9 280x
8gb Ram
Killer e2200
Ethernet wasn't working correctly before I upgraded, I thought it might fix it. The ethernet no longer shows up in the network and sharing centre and is listed as an unknown device in the device manager.
When I try to manually install the drivers(straight from the msi website made for win10) it takes forever and this comes up saying there was a problem installing the driver software to my device.
I have tried installing the killer network program but that doesn't seem to install the drivers since it does not appear in the sharing center.
Thank you for any help you can give.
  1. Download the latest drivers for your Ethernet Controller to keep your Computer up-to-date.
  2. Now that I've updated the ethernet controller drivers, thanks to the help I was given on this site, perhaps I can help others in their turn by making a few suggestions based on what I have learned from struggling to find, download and install the drivers.
  3. Hey i just installed a fresh windows 7 on my dell inspiron n4030 64bit i am able to install all drivers incuding the Bluetooth driver except the wireless driver and when i go into my device manager its shows a yellow sign with a network controller tag please guide me what should i do.

Nov 27, 2018. Ethernet controller driver are useless because you can't even access the internet without the ethernet controller, unless. Once its recognized as hardware to install you'll. Find all xp drivers except the ethernet for gateway.

Base Driver installation
Intel® PROSet/Wireless Software for Windows Device Manager* and Intel® Advanced Network Services (Intel® ANS) installation

Note

Support for the Intel® PROSet command-line utilities (prosetcl.exe and crashdmp.exe) has been removed. Intel® PROSet for Windows PowerShell* software has replaced this functionality. Transition all of your scripts and processes to use the Intel® PROSet for Windows PowerShell* software. Windows* 8.1 and Windows Server* 2012 R2 are the last operating systems to support the Intel PROSet command-line utilities.

See Intel PROSet for Windows PowerShell Software for more information.

Overview

The command-line applications are in the software download packages.

SetupBD.exe, the base driver installation utility, allows unattended installation of base drivers from a Windows* command line.

You can use DxSetup.exe to install all driver and software components from a Windows* command line, including:

  • Intel® PROSet/Wireless Software for Windows* Device Manager
  • Intel® Advanced Network Services (Intel® ANS)
NoteDon't use SetupBD.exe to update drivers when Intel® PROSet/Wireless Software or Intel® Advanced Network Services (Intel® ANS) are installed. You can experience unexpected results. Intel Services are installed. When Intel® PROSet, Advanced Network PROSet, or Intel ANS are installed, use DXSetup.exe.
Windows XP* x64 and Windows Server 2003* x64 don't support unattended driver installation.
You can install Intel® PROSet/Wireless Software with DxSetup.exe or msiexec.exe. We recommend DxSetup.exe. It detects the system language, searches for the appropriate transform file, and applies it to MSI package. The transform file translates the installation instructions to the language associated with your operating system.

Other information

  • If you uninstall an adapter's driver from Windows Device Manager*, you must reboot before using SetupBD.exe to install a new driver.
  • For drivers installed on a system with Intel® 5000 Series Chipset, the /s switch (silent install) forces a reboot without the /r switch. If you don't want the system to reboot, use the /nr switch.
  • For Intel® I/O Acceleration Technology to function properly, you must reboot after driver installation.
  • You can use the /r and /nr switches only with a silent install, example: with the /s option.

Driver
NoteYou can install Intel® PROSet/Wireless Software with DxSetup.exe or msiexec.exe. We recommend DxSetup.exe. It detects the system language, searches for the appropriate transform file, and applies it to MSI package. The transform file translates the installation instructions to the language associated with your operating system.

Using the DxSetup.exe utility

DxSetup.exe is a setup utility used for installing Intel® PROSet/Wireless Software. It detects the system language, searches for the appropriate transform file in the same folder, and launches PROSETDX.msi in the language specific to the operating system. The transform file translates the installation instructions to the language associated with your operating system.

DxSetup.exe also takes the install options from the command line and applies them to the PROSETDX.msi command-line installation.
