asus pce ac68 startup 10.17 is not a valid integer

Using original drivers that came with the cardĪlready exchanged card with another in case of manufacturers defect.so yeah at a loss. It says drivers are compatible, and there shouldn't be any conflict with previous drivers since there never was a wireless card installed on this PC prior to this. When I click enable, goes through the process of enabling it and then remains greyed out. Only thing strange I can find is in adapter settings the card is 'greyed' out. Then in network and sharing center it shows no networks are available, even though my laptop sitting next to my computer is connected with full bars to the router. 'Please connect the asus wireless adapter to your computer before running the utility.' After install the card is recognized in device manager and shows to be working, but when the utility that came with the card is run the error: Installed latest drivers from asus website with no issue.

Was there ever a solution found? I am having the exact same issue with my PCE-ac68 card.
