The Driver for Intel(R) 82567V-2 Gigabit Network Connector has a yellow ! in the device manager and when I try to update the driver I get a message that this driver cannot be updated.

I downloaded the driver  "PROWin64Legacy.exe" from the Intel site and when I tried to install it I got the following message "The installed version of Intel(R) network Connections is not supported for upgrades. You Must uninstall it before installing this version."   

After I uninstall and deleted the driver and restarted, the old driver automatically re installs and When I try to install the new driver I get the same message "The installed version of Intel(R) network Connections is not supported for upgrades. You Must uninstall it before installing this version."     When I check the status of the Network connector I get the error code “This Device cannot start”

What next??        topjon
