Windows 10: Intel Wireless-AC 9260 160MHz wireless networks not displayed

Intel Wireless-AC 9260 160MHz wireless card as part of ASUS TUF Gaming X570 motherboard. Unable to connect to ANY wifi. When I click on show available networks I get a black screen.There should be at least a dozen networks close neighbors in range.I suspect it is a windows setting but haven't found a solution. If I go here and manually enter everything I can connect so it's not a hardware issue.

intel wireless-ac 9260 blue screen crash when installing adapter

Hi, that driver version 20.0.2 does not support the intel wireless-ac 9260

here is a copy and paste from intel https://downloadcenter.intel.com/do...-Wireless-Software-and-Drivers-for-Windows-10

Software and drivers

Intel PROSet/Wireless WiFi Software (includes drivers) for Windows® 10:

• WiFi_20.0.2_PROSet64_Win10.exe
  
• WiFi_20.0.2_PROSet32_Win10.exe
  

Intel PROSet/Wireless WiFi Software version = 20.0.2

• Driver version = 20.0.2.3 for Windows 10 for 18265, 8265, 18260, 8260 adapters.
  
• Driver version = 19.51.7.2 for Windows 10 for 3168, 3165, and 17265 adapters.
  
• Driver version = 18.33.9.3 for Windows 10 for 7265, 3160, and 7260 adapters.

Version: 20.10.2 does support the 9260 adapter, so I will try that one as it is the oldest one available that supports the 9260.

 

Intell(R) Wireless-AC 9560 160MHz cannot start. (Code 10)

I've had some similar issues with that adapter in the past where it would simply disappear completely. In my case I had to uninstall and reinstall the driver completely.

Try these steps:

1) While you have access to the internet, or from another machine, download the following 2 drivers:

Download Windows(R) 10 Wi-Fi Drivers for Intel(R) Wireless Adapters
Download Intel(R) Wireless Bluetooth(R) for Windows(R) 10

One of these is the WiFi driver, the other is for the integrated bluetooth.

Make sure you place these drivers on that laptop before you continue.
Make sure that you know the name of the WiFi network you need to connect to and the password before you continue.

2) Locate the WiFi Adapter in device manager:



NOTES: My WiFi adapter has a different name than yours because this particular machine has a different module installed.
If the device does not show up in Device Manager, try enabling the display of hidden devices like this:



3) Right-click and select the option to uninstall the device. Make sure to delete the driver as shown below.






4) After uninstalling, install the two drivers you downloaded.

5) You will need to rejoin your wireless network.
