    Posted: 27 Jul 2018 at 7:45am
Recently purchased the X370 Taichi for my Ryzen 2700x. I have an existing ASUS PCE AC68 PCIe that I had been using on my B350 motherboard.

When I plug the card into the Taichi and install the latest ASUS or Broadcom drivers on Windows (latest Windows 10 with all updates), my computer instantly locks up and cannot boot properly until I enter safe mode and uninstall+delete the installed driver. The board definitely detects my card, and I've tried various bios versions (4.64 beta, 4.7, 4.72 beta)

Is this the intended behaviour for boards that have built in wifi, where I can't plug in a second wifi card?

Update - it works if I plug it into an x16 slot, but will not start (error code 10 or windows freeze on start up) if plugged into the x1 slots

this is windows 10 issue
anyway...
hit windows button and R, then type msconfig. go to boot tab and then click advanced options, then look for pci lock on the left side and check that box. reboot and u should be done

other way around would be to use win 10 1703 or older

I've tried PCI Lock, still doesn't seem to work. I read another thread that a different user with the same board had issues with their PCIe sound card.

Doesn't explain why it works on x16 but not on x1 though....

Are all your M.2 slots filled?  If so, this would probably account for PCI-e lanes being disabled and hence why you get crashing.

as far as google says it started to happen for many people owning amd (even old FX) when win 10 1709 got released, intel relatively works fine

as far as asus goes, i doubt they will release updated drivers as it is kinda old card (2015)

Only my Ultra slot is filled on my motherboard, the only other thing plugged into the PCIe slots is my GTX 1080

I realised that other users have also reported this issue, but I had a super old motherboard (Intel Gen 3 CPU) that could handle the card just fine on Windows 10 1803 using the PCIe x1 slots, so I was wondering if there was a setting in BIOS that was triggering this issue.

As for why I want to use my PCIe card over the already existing onboard one - the ASUS one is much better (1300Mbps vs 433Mbps on the intel one - makes a huge difference when I'm trying to get files in and out of my file server at home)

I replaced mine with an 8265 earlier, and now I've upgraded it to a 9560.  This is pretty cheap too.  ~30 bucks off of eBay.

Interesting! The ones I can see on ebay only has the PCB and doesn't have the antenna ports - is it removable from my current one easily and attaching it to the new wifi card (looking at the 9560)

Is it the same as this one?
