The PCI Wi-Fi card is causing issues with your system.
The PCI Wi-Fi card is causing issues with your system.
Yesterday evening I returned from school and attempted to start my computer, but it would freeze and display errors on the login screen. The performance dropped drastically, especially when trying to connect to the internet. My home has a decent setup—Aorus B450 Elite Board with a Ryzen 3 2200G, an SATA M.2 120Gb SSD, and a good Windows installation. I tried several troubleshooting steps, but the issue seemed resolved only after disconnecting my Wi-Fi card, which was the sole internet connection at home. Anyone have faced this problem before or know a solution?
Based on your description, it seems the Wi-Fi card failed. These cards can stop working and a faulty expansion card might cause system issues. The best approach is to test another one.
Thank you for your assistance in locating someone for testing. For a fresh purchase, consider a model that offers better value and features compared to what you already have.
