GA-X58A-UD3R | Windows 10 Trouble
« on: December 23, 2016, 10:43:56 pm »
Hi guys,

I'm wondering if someone might be able to advise me here.

I have been using my GA-X58A-UD3R for years, very happily. In the last year, I was offered a Windows 10 upgrade for free, which I took. The upgrade went totally smoothly and I was very happy.

Today, I have come to do a clean install of my system as I like to do them every couple of years or so, and figured it should be fine as everything is running perfect under Windows 10. Alas, when I installed Windows 10 from scratch, the chipset drivers simply didn't work properly and I can't seem to get my built in LAN port to pick up. At the moment I have plugged in a USB wireless stick to get on here.

Does anyone know what chipset version I need to use in order to get my motherboard working with Windows 10 Pro 64-bit? It was working perfectly before my fresh install, so I'm hoping this means the drivers are out there.

Thanks for your help!

Because when you did a update it use the old windows 7 drivers. Have you tried to update the drivers from device manager using the windows 7 drivers. I basically just did the same thing with mine. Did a update to windows 10 and then did a clean install didn't really run into any problems.
