AC1900 Driver digital signature not recognized
I have windows 7 sp1 and have attempted to install the device drivers for the AC1900 wifi adapter...they install but they fail to install due to the digital signature NOT being recognized, hence the ...
I have attempted to install both, including the stand alone...the drivers are the same for each.
i do not have a screenshot but in device manager, when looking at the drive properties, it says....unable to varify the digital signature.
I will try this and post the results...many thanks.
well, after about a dozen reboots i finally got to the advanced screen, disabled driver signature enforcement and attempted to install the software which continued to fail, this time because under safe mode the OS did not recognize the installation program and hence failed to install the drivers.
You cannot reboot the computer with the disabled signature enforcement in normal mode for my OS apparently.
What i need is for NETGEAR to provide a properly signed driver for windows 7. I have been on with their support people for HOURS and they have no idea how to do this.
Taking the damn thing back to best buy and buy a linksys.
so...... i found a way to turn off the digital driver signing using
- bcdedit /set nointegritychecks ON
and i confirmed that it was turned off using bcdedit.... then reinstalled the software and i continue to get the digital signature not verified notice in device manager when i click on the item.
there's no way to do this on window 7 that i can find.
