Windows 10: I need Killer PCIe Control Driver for Internet!

For some reason Dell Computer Co. has a new -not so new really- driver for a Rivet PCIe Control Driver. It's the one for the Killer Network card and I can't get it to install! I have tried everything. The Trouble Shooter had me change the cable but I still have the same problem. I like a good solid Ethernet Connection, but I have to have both to use the wireless printer! Does anyone know a trick I may use to get the driver or some other place to download it from?Harmie

No internet (Killer E2200) after update Windows 10

A lot of the information is in English and the rest I can somewhat decipher.

I might suggest to uninstall the Killer Network Manager as it may be incompatible with the Fall Creators Update.

Then update to the Killer Control Center 64-bit :

If you prefer a "Driver Only" installation, without the Control Center use the following link:

No internet (Killer E2200) after update Windows 10

Hello Morasder,

I am the official support for Killer Networking.

Unfortunately, this seems to be more of a Windows Update issue than an issue with the Killer Drivers, and it's not related to the Killer Suite at all. The issue is that, when Windows updates to the fall creator's update, something disconnects between the
driver and the OS, causing this error. This is evident by the fact that rolling back always fixes the issue, and that many people are using these same drivers on the Windows Fall Creator's Update without any problems.

You already have ready my knowledge base article on the subject. I suspect that the ultimate fix will come in a later Windows update. For now, though, I do have a theory on what might help, but I have yet to get much confirmation, and I have not been able
to duplicate the issue enough to know for sure. I will share my idea with you, though, and hopefully it will help you.

My idea is that stripping the driver down to the "inbox" driver, or the driver that is preinstalled with Windows, then allowing the update, should result in a healthy Ethernet adapter and connection. Then you should be able to update to the latest driver.
Here are the steps:

• Download the latest Killer Control Center from here - https://www.killernetworking.com/driver-downloads/item/killer-control-center-x64 - for later installation.
• Right-click Start
• Click Apps and Features
• Uninstall everything "Killer", including "Killer Performance Driver Suite" and any variations. This will also include the Killer Network Manager. Literally anything with "Killer" in it.
• Restart your machine by clicking Start > Power > Restart
• Right-click Start
• Click Device Manager
• Double-click Network Adapters
• Right-click your E2200 and click Uninstall device
• Put a check in the box for Delete the driver software for this device if it appears.
• Click Uninstall
• Click Action > Scan for hardware changes. The E2200 should reappear.
• Repeat steps 9-12, but only for as long as Delete the driver software for this device appears. Each time you do this, you are deleting a previously installed driver. We want them all gone. Once there i no option to
  Delete the driver software for this device, move on to step 13. The E2200 will likely always reappear, and that is fine, as it is just reinstalling the default driver.
• Restart your machine by clicking Start > Power > Restart
• Allow the Fall Creator's Update to go through. In your case, take your connection off of "Metered" and then check for updates, and it should go through.
  
• Hopefully the E2200 will be working when it comes out the other side. At that point, you can install the latest Killer Control Center package, and be good to go.

Please let me know if this works for you. I'm trying to get some further confirmation before I add it as a definite fix on our KB. You can contact me directly at *** Email address is removed for privacy ***. Also contact me if this doesn't work, as I have a few other ideas.

 

Windows is updating my Realtek - LAN - Realtek PCIe GBE Family Controller driver everyday to the same version

Hi,

There are several factors that can trigger a certain driver on your computer to update from time to time with the same version. One of these is due to system file corruption. For us to effectively assist you in rectifying the unusual activity of the Realtek
PCIe GBE Family Controller driver, we'd like to know these details:

• Did the issue happen right after you installed the Creators update? If yes, may we know how you acquired or installed the update?
  
• Is this behavior confined to the Realtek Family Controller driver only?
• What steps have you done so far to resolve the concern?

Your reply is highly appreciated.
