I have had my pc for over a year now and yesterday I installed a bluetooth/wireless card, an ASUS PCE-AC55BT Wireless AC1200 Dual-Band PCI-E Adapter with Bluetooth to be exact. I watched someone on youtube install it and he said he didn't need any drivers or anything because it has the drivers pre-installed on windows 10. So I took his word and installed the hardware and didn't bother with the drivers. It seemed to be working fine for the entire day, I could connect to Wi-Fi without an ethernet cable and I could connect to my phone over bluetooth.
So I thought all was well until I had to turn my computer off. Then about 3-5 seconds later my computer started up again. I was quite confused so I then spent about an hour looking for a solution. I even installed the drivers onto my computer but it said a later version is already installed on this device. I tried everything I looked to see if windows had an update or any of my drivers and I was trying to troubleshoot everything but, my computer kept telling me that everything was working fine. So I kept trying to shut it down and it just kept booting up.
I got quite annoyed with this so inbetween that period of my computer shutting down and booting itself back up again I switched the powerpoint off. I started it back up in the morning and again it was working fine... until I shut it down again and the same problem persisted. I have now just done the same thing as last night by switching it off by the powerpoint.
If anybody has a clue to what is going on I would very much appreciate it, thanks in advance.
Just my specs:
- Cooler Master MasterBox 5 Windowed Mid Tower Case
- Intel Core i5 6500 Quad Core LGA 1151 3.2 GHz CPU
- Gigabyte H170-HD3 LGA1151 Motherboard
- Kingston HyperX FURY 16GB (2x8GB) 2133MHz DDR4
- WD WD10EZEX 1TB Blue 3.5” 7200 RPM
- Samsung 750 EVO 250GB 2.5" SATA SSD
- MSI AMD Radeon RX 480 Gaming X 4GB
- Windows 10 Home 64-bit
- EVGA SuperNOVA 650W G1 80+ Gold Modular Power Supply
P.s The only new hardware since I purchased this computer has been this wireless card/bluetooth thing.
