Wireless Network Adapter not Recognised by PC

My old network adapter was cutting out every now and then so I decided to upgrade.

Existing Motherboard is: ASUS P8Z77-V Pro

New Network Adapter is: TP Link AX3000 Archer TX50E

The issue I am having is that when I plugged in the network adapter, nothing shows up in Device Manager. Even after installing the drivers given in a disc it doesn't recognise the network adapter.

I am unsure if it's a compability issue, as PCpartpicker says there are no compatibility issues.

Currently I only have a PCIe 2.0 x1_1 slot free and that's where the old netowrk adapter was used and trying to use the new one in. All other PCE slots are used by two graphics card. The card is brand new so I am leaning towards there being no damage to the card.

I am unsure as to how to solve this issue. I have tried installing in safe mode, manually installing the drivers but to no result. I have not done a bios update as unsure how to do it and whether it will provide any result.

​

Any help is appreciated, thanks.
