    Hey guys so I just bought a brand new Crosshair V motherboard and reinstalled all my drivers including a fresh windows install. Everything worked fine so I continued to restore my music and games via a backup.

    Now a week later I turned on my pc and looked trough my oc settings (not played with it so far) and accidently clicked on the load oc profile, wich removed all my sata settings (I'm using 2 HDD's in raid). It wouldn't boot ofcourse so I found the problem and turned raid back on and it immediatly booted.

    Now to my problem! My windows booted up and said that there are no lan/internet and audio drivers found! I tried to reinstall them but nothing helped!

    What should I do?

    Did the oc settings also disable on-board lan and sound? Look for them in the peripherals section of the bios/efi.

    If that doesn't help, in the BIOS/EFI, look for "Load optimize default" option. Select it, and rebuild your RAID (as that would be gone (expected, as it will make the board re-detect your hardware, and set everything to default)).

    Fixed! I uninstalled the driver and then removed the device from the devices configuration in windows, rebooted and it suddenly worked?! Didn't install any new drivers but it works now :)
    Thanks for good advice anyway!
