After cleaning a virus, my office which was previously... now can only Wired internet wifi connection

I can see "wireless network connection", but it says not connected. I tried to disable and enable, connect etc, but he says always "not connected". I also tried 'wireless start-up' or search for wireless services and it says "no wireless networks detected on this computer"... under network and sharing in the left side panel Center, it DOES NOT list (?) wireless network connections This computer has been wireless for years... but I'm puzzeled on the way to get wireless again... System Restore is also used, nothing helps.

Using the system restore only will put you back in the area of viruses, which you say that you had deleted.

Go to the website of the manufacturer of your laptop > drivers and downloads Section > key in your model number > look for the latest Vista drivers > download/install them.

Or go to the website of the card/USB wireless adapter (as you say you have a computer) > download the drivers for your hardware wireless

  • XP activation key does not not on the machine which was previously lowered the mark to Vista Business.

    I have a machine that came from Dell with an OEM of Windows Vista license and was demoted to XP and given a valid XP key.  The machine has been turned on and updated normally with this key.  Due to viruses and malware, the owner of machines wants to perform a new installation of XP.  I have Windows Vista Business key and the key XP Pro that was published during the downgrade.  Trying to install XP Pro I get to the point of activation, and the key is rejected.  When you try to call and explain the situation, I am sent to the support tech then asked to pay for support, as they cannot help me.  I do not pay for support when all I want to do is accept a XP key that was obtained legally through Microsoft downgrade policy.  Hardware wise, nothing has changed in the machine, why is rejected the XP key, which was published by Microsoft?  Thanks for any thoughts on this.

    If Dell provides you with downgrade XP Dell support is required to provide support.

  • After that my virus clean my printer does not work I have windows xp and my printer Deskjet F 300 said

    After that a virus clean my printer HP Deskjet F 300 quit working they installed Windows XP from Windows 2000 and I can't make it work help

    "they have installed?  You had somebody "clean" your computer and they have also installed Windows XP (you used to have Windows 2000)?

    The first thing you need to do is to determine if 'they' a legitimate version of Windows XP installed.  Download and run the MGADiag tool.  If the tool does not report that Windows is "genuine", take back it the computer and demand that 'they' install an authentic version, paid Windows XP.  While they are at it, tell them to install a driver for your HP Deskjet F300.

    If you do not have a genuine version of Windows XP, then go to this page: http://h10025.www1.hp.com/ewfrf/wc/softwareCategory?os=228&lc=en&cc=us&dlc=en&sw_lang=&product=1128298
    You have several choices to this page.

    • The top line, which only says: 'Pilot' is the complete set of software including software HP's Photosmart printer drivers and the scanner of your Deskjet.  As the HP notes, this is a very large download, so if you want this package, you must have a high-speed Internet connection or order the CD.
    • The second line, which says "Driver - Product Installation software" includes the basic print and scan drivers.  HP has said, "not all product features are supported with this installation package."  I don't know what "features" are not supported if you choose this option.
    • It should not necessary the "Patch" because or the other of the first two downloads is dated after the patch and so should be included.  After things are installed, you can download and install the most recent of the 3 "Updates".

    When you wrote that the printer "will not work" after a new installation of Windows XP, I assume that the printer is not installed at all.  Just in case, however, previously, you use the package that you download from HP, follow the instructions here to clean all traces of a failed attempt to install it.  (Note: remember "Step 4".)  "Step 6" refers to the directions outlined in the upper part of this post.)
