4540 proBook s (Energy Star): Wireless got disabled - unable to start - no WiFi or Bluetooth

My laptop worked well until one day all of a sudden the wireless got off. Switch wireless on my laptop has definitely turned amber (medium amber wireless is disabled and white wireless is enabled). Here are my comments or things that I tried in vain to solve the problem:

  1. When you press the plane mode switch gets toggled indicating that the switch is responding well but does not change the status of wireless.
  2. I checked the Device Manager and there was no sign of WIFI or Bluetooth. Then I reinstalled the drivers concerned. Still, there was no sign of WLAN & Bluetooth.
  3. Then I tried Safe Mode. Once again no sign of WIFI or Bluetooth in the Device Manager.
  4. Then I went for the Mode safe mode with networking. Once again no sign of WIFI or Bluetooth in the Device Manager.
  5. I tried disabling and activation then wireless in the start menu (F10), but still it did not work.
  6. I contacted HP Support. They took control of the remote control of my laptop and just reinstalled the drivers and told me that they could not solve the problem.

I don't know that it's more a software problem that emit materials. There was a small bit of software called HP Wireless Assistant that could replace the physical wireless switch but unfortunately I can't find a compatible version to win 8.1.

Can anyone help me please with this problem. It's terrible to use internet using Ethernet. Every day that passes is like a punishment for me. Please help me...

Have you tried reinstalling the wireless card to be sure it has a good connection? Try to run to the top once with it deleted... then stop and reinstall.

By pressing the wireless button it became orange and the system bar say has been disabled but I don't know if it is permanent or if restarting of the computer back on.

    I have a problem installing the BIOS via HP assistant. It starts to download the latest version of Bios (110 Ko..), and finally the HP Assistant fails to install the bios.

    Your computer Support pages:

    Reference:

    Updated the BIOS

    It is the opinion of the Expert that you shouldn't depend on HP Support AWizard when it comes to BIOS updates.

    According to other factors in the system at the time when the HPSA trying to hit your system with an update of this type; the results could be... other than expected.

    You can set 'Notification' HPSA to prevent it from trying to update your BIOS.

    DON'T update the BIOS when you see an update in your Web page of the computer AND that this update can be used to provide a fix for a problem that you have discovered in your system.  In other words: If your computer is happy, do not update the BIOS just because you think it would be a good thing to do.

    If you decide to update your BIOS

    • Make sure that ALL backups are up-to-date and complete - this means that everything you need to restore the system in case something goes wrong.
    • Understand that even when you do everything exactly right, you can end up with a bricked computer, that is an expensive paper weight.
    • Make sure you have at least your critical data on some form of external backup.
    • Unplug the USB drives and other useless material.  Desktop keyboard and mouse can stay connected.
    • Always run power cable to update the BIOS, never on the laptop battery
    • Touch the system during the update is underway
    • Optional: Leave wireless ONbutton. You could turn off the router to ensure that there is no interruption.

    If you still get into trouble, see: restore the BIOS

  • HP ENVY 17-j112tx Leap Motion: Overclocking my HP ENVY 17-j112tx Leap Motion SE Notebook PC (ENERGY STAR)

    Hey all,.

    My laptop that I liked for the time I got it, so a pretty good personal camera all-round.

    However as I just realized, the processor isn't quite cut. For these unfimilair with this product, it's Intel Core i7-4702MQ CPU @ 2.20 GHz. Which is decent except the Gigahertz.

    And as I came to learn, the BIOS Overclocking locked so my question to you is if I can overclock my processor in anyway eventually (even with a cost?). I'd give perfer to keep this laptop as it has a 16gbs of ram and a decent graphics card!

    Thanks in advance.

My current loan machine is also a HP Envy 17 t wGen 5 CPU and best card NVIDIA but no movement of jump. They are great machines.

  • Wireless is disabled when I Boot on my PC

    Hey everybody. This is my first question! Yay!

    Anywho, I have an ongoing annoying problem. Whenever I turn on my PC, Wi - Fi is disabled. I have to manually press the power button to re-enable wireless. I am currently running Windows 7 Professional on a HP G70t laptop.

    After I press the turn wireless on button, everything works fine. It's just when I restart my PC when wireless is disabled. Any advice?

    So to conclude my problem, I found a solution.

    Aparently, my network card has been disabled by Windows to save energy. I disabled, and now a WLAN Access starts successfully.

    Thanks again, everyone, for all of the help!
