I just got a Rosewill RNX-N180EUB wireless adapter, but it won't work. I'm pretty sure I know what the problem is, my old adapter's drivers are conflicting with the new ones. But I don't know how to go about removing those old drivers. I've looked around in Device Manager, but I can't find anything. I also don't know what kind of an adapter it was because it came with the computer, and it doesn't say on the side.

I'm using Windows 7 64bit and I tried the latest drivers from Rosewill's site with no luck.

^ Good to hear from someone who has the same stuff as me. I just tried setting it to 62.5% and its quieted right down. I just hope it doesn't get too hot...as right now it's idling at 29-30C

^ Yes, and the only thing I found about fan control was talking about the target temperature for my CPU and from there I could choose a minium fan speed. But that was just the minium so it still stayed at 100%.

Well I just reset it and used as little thermal paste as possible, but the BIOS is still saying the temps are in the 38-39C range with the fan at 100%.

I just double checked and it's in the right place. I think I will reapply the thermal paste in a few days when my new RAM shows up and hope that helps.

^ I'm certain I put it in that one because it was the only place that had enough plugs and was closest to the CPU.

It's not OCed but I sorta...messed up the thermal paste when I put it on. The TX3 has a...strange...installation and it started sliding around, and I ended up with too much paste. So I took the heatsink off and tried again (without cleaning anything off). I didn't think it would make that big of a deal, but I'll try that. How should I go about safely cleaning it?

I just opened up BIOS

It said my CPU's temp was 39-40C

Fan's RPM was around 3000, but the fan says its max is 2800 :?

The only thing I found about controlling the fan stuff was talking about AMD's Cool'n'Quiet which is set to Auto
