    TP-Link TL-WN822N on windows 8

    Got it working by changing frequency I switched frequency down from 5GHz to 2.4GHz, retaining the 300Mbps speed, on the Virgin Super Hub (i.e. netgear router) and suddenly the TL-WN822N could see the network.

    TP-Link TL-WN822N on windows 8

    Still no joy for 802.11n Followed this instruction but still only seeing my 802.11g network, not the 802.11n network. I simply cannot find a driver that will do this. One thing to note is that it did not give me any option about which driver to install - it just located and installed on.

    No joy. However, blue screen occurred prior to part of Windows Setup that accesses HDD. The error was a page fault in non paged area. So I'm figuring I can eliminate HDD. Does it sound like memory? Or CPU?

    About to go to a computer repair shop

    Tried a different monitor, different VGA cable, different case. PSU doesn't have unpluggable leads, so can't change though. Don't think I have tried different SATA cable actually!

    It POSTS, but I no longer have a bootable drive so it then starts on setting up Windows from USB. It loads the files and always gets to the point before being able to select a drive to install on. With the SSD at least I can see the partition and select it. Then blue screen may happen...

    About to go to a computer repair shop

    I'm about to quit custom PC builds. Have now replaced every single component of PC (maybe not some screws) and still getting blue screens really randomly. Can no longer boot original Windows, so blue screens are happening when trying to install new Windows. Chronology: - Intermittent...
