From what I can see, my new components are up and running - everything seems OK apart from the wireless card:

TP-LINK TL-WDN4800 N900 Wireless Dual Band PCI Express Adapter

The system appears to be recognising it: the device comes up in device manager so it must be properly seated but when I try to switch over to it, I get the following message:

I upgraded my motherboard as well - is it best to reinstall Windows when switching to a different motherboard? Could this be causing the problem?

New Specs:

Gigabyte Z87-DS3H
Intel Core i5 4670K 3.40ghz
Corsair 8gb Vengeance 1866mhz RAM

GPU is the same as before: AMD 6850 1gb.

Thanks in advance.

Incidentally, I had a Gigabyte motherboard before as well.

I hope that helps.
(the answer is, yes a reformat and reinstall of windows could fix the problem, but you might not have to)
