These are the specs of what I built last week:

AMD Ryzen 7 3700x
Viper Gaming 2x16GB 3200MHz
MSI B450 Tomahawk Max
AMD Radeon Gigabytre 5700 XT
Kingston 240GB SSD
EVGA Supernova 850w P2

I upgraded W7 to W10 via USB, clean install nothing else on. Only peripherals I have plugged in are mouse, keyboard and speakers. Only using 1 monitor when I normally would use 2. HDD isn't connected yet. Nothing is overclocked.

I have had various blue screen messages such as
NOT_LESS_OR_EQUAL
PAGE_FAULT_IN_NONPAGED_AREA
KERNEL_MODE_HEAP_CORRUPTION
UNEXPECTED_KERNAL_MODE_TRAP
DRIVER_VERIFIER_DETECTED VIOLATION

I used the windows memory diagnostic and swapped the sticks around and suspect that one stick has a problem. However, I don't want to just send that back to OC for another until I'm positive but it's difficult when I don't know what I'm doing.

I've done all windows updates, made sure my BIOS is up to date, installed drivers, ran memtest64 but it kept either closing down or was done in 50 seconds saying no issues.

All this and my wifi keeps saying there's no internet when there is and my GPU has disappeared from device manager but I'd rather get this sorted first.

Does anyone have any suggestions to try please?

Thanks
 
looks like a driver issue.

do a fresh install if you have backed up your files you want on C drive

make sure windows is activated right now

download this run the tool, put it on a USB then boot from it and do a completely fresh partition install of windows 10.

Settings say windows is activated with a digital license

I have the W10 upgrade on a USB that I used, shall I use that again or is that link a different one?
 
Everything is large, my GPU still isn't showing on the device manager, I'm guessing I need to download some drivers?

And the internet still disconnects after starting up


Bonus though, I did the windows memory diagnostics and there was no errors! Progress???

I'm going to bed I've been doing this for about 10 hours now lol
 
Updated to latest windows build ?

installed all the windows updates last night, just checked now there was 2 more so did those. It says I'm up to date now but has a red exclamation mark?

Wifi still went off after startup, its connected for a minute then it changes to 'no internet, device's and I have to click disconnect and then check connect automatically for it to work.

My GPU still isn't showing under display adapters, shall I try downloading the drivers?
 
My ssd is 240gb , it says 239,447,568,384 bytes but after that 223gb is that right? I'm assuming its taken a little chunk for windows but I want to be sure
 
I've downloaded the amd Radeon adrenaline 2020 and now it appears under display drivers! Will check it again later with gpu-z
 
223gb yeh that's right. are you all sorted?

do you have a ethernet cable to plug in while you fully update all drivers and updates.

search for updates from device manager for wifi adapter . sometimes windows update doesn't update it fully you have to pull it manually from the internet via device manager.

I think I'm sorted, I should probably get some software for the motherboard just to make sure that's up to date. Otherwise its just this wifi thing, device manager says I have the best one and nothing on Windows update so might check google see if I can download anything from there
Otherwise I'm going to go about my day as normal and wait for a blue screen!

Which wifi card do you have mate ? it may be that you can just get away with installing the wifi chipset manufacturers driver, if we know which card it is, we can find out which chipset it has.
 
@Bexx
Pleased to hear that things seem to be working now. Create a restore point so you know you can restore back to a reasonably working state if things become pear-shaped.

I install graphics and sound drivers myself, otherwise I use Snappy Driver Installer Origin to take care of the rest. If you find something doesn't work, just rollback the driver for what isn't working.

I don't have a card but I use a tplink dongle. I've got a feeling it's just not very compatible with windows 10 but ill keep looking

good idea I think I will do since I want to install my hdd later and knowing my luck I'll mess that up as well haha
 
Ubit AX WiFi 6 Dual Band 2974 Mbps AX200 PCIE Wireless WiFi Card

cheap solution, I'm using one of these in the day time. Then plug the cable in when I play FPS games in the evening, for wow I just stick to the wifi. I don't have a wifi 6 router as well i'm using BT smart hub 2 (wifi 5) and works wonderfully for me.

Your drivers for that card are here: http://www.evisionde.com/ProDetail.aspx?ProId=80

When you click the link, just above the description, you'll see settings guide, FAQ and driver downloads links, click drivers download and you'll see all the required drivers for Windows 10, theres also an installation video to help.

If you struggle with that, you can also use the drivers here, which are probably better to be honest, your wifi card has an AX200 Intel WiFi 6 chipset https://downloadcenter.intel.com/product/189347/Intel-Wi-Fi-6-AX200

You'll want the bottom 2 drivers in that link, one is for the bluetooth and the other is for the wifi

EDIT.....sorry, I thought you were the OP replying.

It's a TL-WN725N, I downloaded the driver for V3 since that says W10 on it but when I try setup it says it can't find the adapter.

EDIT: Just tried V2 and got the same thing

Is your device manager still seeing the device when its plugged in with an exclamation mark next to it ? if so, do you know how to install using the inf driver version instead ?

No it was W10 updates that had the exclamation mark, but that's gone now, don't know what that was about.

The wifi adapter shows up under device manager as Realtek RTL8188CU Wireless LAN 802.11n USB 2.0 network adapter

It's annoying but not the end of the world to have to connect manually after startup for now, until I either find a fix or get a more modern adapter. I just don't want it to cut out on me in the middle of a game. It's been alright so far this evening though. I've sorted the cables and put the side panel on and it's actually being used as my computer instead of on my dressing table with no sides on with wires hanging out like some dodgy experiment.
