Installing intel 7260ac adapter disables my wireless capability

Hello

I have installed Intel 7260ac adapter and installed the necessary drivers. The adpater shows up in device manger as working properly.

The problem I am having is that I cannot enable the wireless capability to use the new adaptor.

I have tried the usual shortcut fn+f3, ran the troubleshooter, disabled and enabled the adapter in netowrk and sharing centre with no luck. If I re-install the original adapter from Broadcom everything works ok.

This post states that the laptop is compatible but im having my doubts now.

Acer Aspire v5-571P - Replace the network card?

I would really like to get this up and running rather than return the adapter so I can take advantage of my new router speeds.
