    SO I accidentally deleted my network driver adapter. It came up as Secure AVG something, and I no longer use AVG so I figured I would delete it. After that, when things still weren't working, I did a computer reset. Now I can't even do a system restore. What in the world am I supposed to do?


    Thank you!

    :)

    Guide: Turn your Killer E2200 NIC into Qualcomm Atheros AR8161

    Basically I right click on the Killer Network Adapter in Device manager > Uninstall > Check the box to DELETE driver for this device

    Then you won't have a relevant network adapter listed. So you have to add a new device, and I just followed the instructions listed in this thread... does that help?
