Cannot get wireless active uisng Windows XP

Hello

one of my friends has a laptop, it was a gift, but he has a problem and he gave me the laptop to fix.

The laptop has network driver, but it has no software of Toshiba in it.
I don't know why he lost his CD and the problem is that I can't activate the network.

The laptop has a small LED of the wireless card, but it is disabled.
I tried Fn + F8, but the wireless is still off.
The driver seems to work very well, but he says no networks detected.

I know it needs a utility but I can't.
The computer is running Windows XP.

No idea how I can get active wireless?
I know that you need Flash cards, but I can't find something similar for Windows XP.
I tried a HotKey Utility but there only 2 options and they do not seem to work at all, but they are still irrelevant in any case Wi - Fi.

You wrote long message but haven't posted info on the laptop you have.
What model of laptop are you using exactly?

> I know you need to Flash cards, but I can't find something similar for Windows XP.
Flash cards are not available for Win XP
As I remember in many cases the common Modules (software) controlled the FN Windows XP keys

  • Cannot get online after installing windows XP Edition family on my laptop which was origally XP PRO

    I have a laptop HP Compaq 6830 s that had xp professional did not get a disc of bone with it when buying. The system crashed 0x0000007B error code. I installed OS XP Home version Pro Version and now I't does not recognize my modem or ethernet. Cannot get online. I'll tho the HP site and they don't have that driver for XP Pro Downloads Home Version. I go to the Device Manager and have question marks on the following - ethernet controller (PCI bus 134, device 0, function 0), network controller (bus PCI 3, device 0, function 0), PCI Device (device function 27 of the PCI bus 0 0), Universal serial bus (PCI bus 0, device 29, function 7) (USB) Universal Serial Bus controller (bus PCI 0) (, 26, function 7 device), unknown device (on PCI bus) properties, the properties of the unknown device (on system compatible ACPI Microsoft) and the properties of video controller (VGA Compatible) (bus PCI 1, device 0, function 0) all the points mark have (Code 28). Is there any wat I can fix this or should I install OS XP PRO?

    Go here--> http://www8.hp.com/us/en/support-drivers.html

    Enter the model of your computer.  If you just enter 'Compaq 6830 s' you get 3 choices.

    For example, I clicked on the link below and select the link for "XP Professional" coming to this page--> http://h20000.www2.hp.com/bizsupport/TechSupport/SoftwareIndex.jsp?lang=en&cc=us&prodNameId=3688717&prodTypeId=321957&prodSeriesId=3688712&swLang=13&taskId=135&swEnvOID=1093

    You're right; There are a large number of items on this page.  You may be able to refine things if you enter your full product number, but if not, here are some general indications:

    "" For each of the downloads, click each tab on the download page and read the information on 'Description' improvements,' 'Instructions of Installation","System requirements"," Release Notes, "and"Revision history" before you install the downloaded driver.

    • Start by "Driver - Chipset" and use "9.1.0.1007 a (January 16, 2009).»
    • Then go to "driver - storage.»  Install the Intel Matrix Storage Manager driver.  Optional, but probably very desirable, install the new version of HP 3D DriveGuard.  You probably don't need (at least for now), the driver of chip card reader (unless you have an external drive of smart card).
    • Then go to "- Audio driver." Install the driver Microsoft UAA and the most recent drivers SoundMax ADI.
    • Then go to 'Pilot - graphics.' Install the new ATI video driver.
    • Then go to "driver - network."  It's a little more complicated.  Install the Marvel Yukon Gigabit Ethernet controller driver.  This will allow you to connect to your cable or DSL or your router by Ethernet cable.  You must determine if your particular laptop has an Intel or Broadcom wireless adapter.  Looking in the Device Manager in the "Network adapter" section, you should be able to make this identification.  Install the driver for the appropriate device.  If you believe that your laptop is Bluetooth compatible, install this driver as well.  The HP "wireless Wizard" is optional.  I would delay installing this at this stage.
    • Then go to "Driver - keyboard, mouse and input devices."  Install the Synaptics Touchpad driver and one for the HP Quick Launch buttons.

    At this point, most of your hardware should work correctly.  If there is always warning icons in Device Manager, you should be able to understand... or ask again here.  Read the 'Description' for other downloads to see if this is something you want or need.  Be aware, however, that many "Software" downloads are only updates or patches and not the complete package (which probably would have been preinstalled on a new computer.

  • Satellite Pro P300-1EC - cannot get wireless to work

    Hello!

    First of all. Excuse me for my English!

    TEC Spec.

    Toshiba Satellite Pro P300-1EC
    Intel WiFi Link 5100
    Windows XP Pro SP3

    I have a big problem. I can't get the wireless LAN working properly.
    And the customer has purchased this computer because his old computer stopped working with WLAN...

    I tried everything I can. And I am a person of educated tech, so I think I should have the knowledge of this, but I do not have.

    Short version.

    1. install the latest drivers. (Also tried more aged)
    2 restart the computer.
    3 WNIC takes about 10 min to find WLAN.
    4. While working perfect with 130Mbps on project N.
    5.i can user logout and change and all.
    6. when I restart I'm back at number 3.

    Long version:

    I installed XP pro since the XP downgrade Cd included and wireless drivers wasn't on that CD so I downloaded them. (And Yes. "This is the correct drivers.)
    After that I installed the driver and restart my computer, I could not find wireless networks. Kind of weird because I have 4 routers/points of WLAN on my company with the range 60-100% and about 3 other public routers without security. I tried to update the drivers to windows update, and WU has found an update for me. I installed driver and the wireless highlight function. I scream YES and restart the computer. Then it stopped working. N° !!!
    I was a little tired on the problem and began installing some other computers that I bought and when I looked the Toshiba computer that I saw that it was connected to my WLAN. Weird, but I thought it worked then I restart the computer again and then his does not work... again! Now, I have analyzedthe problem and it's like that.

    When I start the computer the my WNIC does not any WLAN.
    About 10 min (10m32s) after starting the wireless started working.
    I am able to disconnect and change the user and it still works, but as soon as I restart the computer it stops and I have to wait another 10 minutes. And so on.

    Anyone been trough something like this even if it is not not toshiba or my model?

    Hello

    What is the Satellite Pro P300 - 1EC BIOS is up-to-date?
    Please check everything first.

    You said you are using Draft N did you tried to establish the WiFi connection using other standard WLan as 802.11 A or G?

    I also recommend changing the WiFi channel and try other channels.

    In addition, you can change a WLan option that affects the WLan functionality. You can find these settings in the Device Manager-> card WLan-> properties-> Advanced tab

    Good bye

  • Re: Portege M800 - cannot get bluetooth installed in Windows 7

    Hi, I have a portege M800 PPM81C-07602D. It came with windows vista but I reinstalled Windows 7, and now I can't get the bluetooth drivers to install. I tried the old drivers and the new drivers windows vista 7, but when I run the installation I get the message "Please plug in the bluetooth device and click OK."... If I click ok it appears again. I don't know why it wouldn't find the bluetooth internal... I don't think that there is a physical switch to BT anywhere, and I tried to find out if it had been disabled in the bios but nothing in there on this subject... so... I'm out of ideas.

    Anyone has any ideas I can try?
    Any help is appreciated, thanks!

    Toshiba Bluetooth stack can be installed if the BT module is activated correctly use FN + F8 key combination to activate the BT module.
    After making that BT should be recognized and installed correctly (you will have to entered BT in Device Manager).

  • Cannot get wireless driver to install - how?

    Hello

    I just bought a refurbished 2100(te?) tecra notebook and again, I have to get the wifi working. I have a yellow exclamation beside 'Network controller' in the Device Manager on XPSP1 pro. I downloaded what was labeled as a driver on the toshiba site, but when I try to install the windows driver responds with a message stating that the driver does not match my hardware and therefore won't let me install the driver. I also welcomed windows 'Search' for the driver via the internet, of course, it was without result. Please let me know if you have any ideas to solve this problem. Here's the info from the laptop:

    Serial number - 53015241SU
    Part number - PT210U-02D3L72
    1.8 GHZ P4, 1 GB DDR, RJ45 (10/100 NIC), RJ11 (modem), integrated 30 GB HD, DVD, wifi (Yes, it should be not only the switch and internal antenna) and other normal stuff.

    Any help would be appreciated in the sovereign.

  • Cisco 881 cannot get wireless working

    Hi all

    I just bought a 881w and his works fine except the wireless part. Strange things are happening:

    (1) router is configured and works, I can browse the internet without any problem.

    (2) when I connect to the CCP, I can click on the option 'Wireless', and after typing my credentials, I can see the tabs 'Basic Configuration' and 'Network Configuration ';

    (3) I have assigned a static IP address for the wireless-access point (https://172.16.74.200);

    (4) when I click on the button "Launch Wireless Application" (which comes to open a browser to "https://172.16.74.200"), I get a Web page with just one button inside (see attached screenshot). When I click on the button, InternetExplorer gives a JavaScript error. When I look at the page source, I see where it won't: the JS function below uses the value of a field and expects some values. But the field contains a message of error-Cisco... Strange right?

    (5) when I add a network on the tab 'Network Configuration', my PC does not see a network, but it has the SSID is not visible (Yes = SSID broadcast, see the screenshots attached).

    Can someone help me? I think I ran out of options...

    THX!

  • Cannot get wireless access

    Have McAfee? It has been updated with a faulty update at the same time as the recent Windows updates.

    See the communication from this "criticism" - McAfee

    Some customers may experience a loss of network connectivity and/or errors in McAfee Security Center after a recent update

    You should make the fix McAfee, if necessary.

    I got McAfee, but the connection has started working again on its own so I thought I was clear of problems. However, when I checked it says he was doing routine checks the updates in vain when I told it to do a manually. So stick with McAfee you don't follow their procedure of fix would have upgraded my PC at risk by not updated and, as other listings of McAfee said since then, the application did not refer to his database of threats correctly. Actually, I removed and then installed Microsoft Security Essentials rather & my answer IE is faster I knew it [even though I had the Add-ons McAfee disabled for centuries].

    I had to run the McAfee Development [removal tool] several times before and it caused a problem with the license if the PC was not connected to the internet during the abduction. Due cat of McAfee support reset their files in order to allow the relocation-reactivation. Here is their link cat - McAfee - media contains the link to the cat

  • Brand new extreme air port cannot get wireless

    I bought a brand new port of extreme sir 3 days ago. I had my internet provider come out and check our signal. We have strong signal from the cable modem. I have internet when I run a cable directly on my Mac, but when I run this same cable ethernet on the port of extreme sir the light turns green, but the usefulness of the air port shows that I have no internet.

    I contacted Arris and they checked the modem and it works correctly. I have restarted the modem and did a hard reset on it so. Always the same question.

    Running the OS X El Capitan 10.11.3 the only thing that is old on all my systems is the Mac itself. Is not supposed.

    I had a time capsule connected to the modem and an air inlet extreme to extend wi - fi. Those that worked very well, and then two weeks ago, he stopped. I was able to reset the modem and get wi - fi for a while but it came out again. Cox has recommended the new air port extreme, which was probably necessary anyway, but always the same question.

    Any help is appreciated.

    I contacted Arris and they checked the modem and it works correctly

    Can you please provide the model number of the Arris modem?

    I had a time capsule connected to the modem and an air inlet extreme to extend wi - fi

    Sorry, I'm not clear on the question of whether the modem normally connects to the Time Capsule and AirPort Extreme, extends the... wireless signal or... If the modem connects to the Airport Extreme at the moment.

  • Cannot get wireless with my Satellite Pro L20

    My Satellite Pro L20 simply does not recognize my wireless network at home - he can't even see when I search for wireless networks. With my other non-Toshiba laptop on - there was no problem and that captures wireless 4 or 5 in my neighborhood.

    My Tosh works well when he hard plugged on the Net, but if you help get me wireless I would appreciate.

    Are you sure that your laptop is an installation of a WLan minPCI card?
    You can check this in the device under network adapters Manager

    If the wireless network adapter is listed in the device manager then you should check the compatibility of the WLan standards.
    If the wireless network adapter supports only the 802. 11 G standard and your router supports only 802.11 A or 802.11 standard B then you will not be able to connect to the WLan router.

  • Newly installed hard drive, cannot get the reinstallation of Windows 7 to the end

    Hi all. My factory-issued Seagate 1 TB hard drive of origin provided with my PC Pavilion Elite HPE-240f failed a few months ago and I finally had time to fixation (rock a Pavilion dm4 laptop in the meantime, I'm not in a huge rush). I replaced it tonight with a Western Digital Blue 1 TB hard drive, which I know is Advanced Format.

    I love HP platform minor changes in the the Windows 7 OS, I went ahead and tried to reinstall the OS of my recovery disks that I made when I got this PC. I checked the BIOS settings and the new hard drive WD IS recognized, the size is correct, etc. It has been configured in RAID with the SATA controller, and I tried to put out when the installation of the operating system initially lacked AHCI. It seems to be stuck in some kind of loop in the final configuration step, and I get out of the dialog box "Installation of Windows set up Windows to run on a hardware on this computer" could not. Hit Okay sends in reboot and after that I get a "Windows is unable to complete the installation. To install Windows on this computer, restart the installation"notice.

    It makes me batty, and I really want my back office. This is a great machine, and as much as I love my laptop, it can't handle heavy programs like Photoshop or my multitasking fool. I managed to get the OS installed by forcing the system to bypass its system predefined through registry commands, but the important things were wrong, as Windows Update does not work, so I'll try to reset all with only recovery disks. So far, no go. I am extremely tired, frustrated, and it's late, so apologies for what I've left out or of typos. Any help on how to solve this problem is GREATLY appreciated.

    Thank you very much for your response, @MechPilot. I actually found what I thought, it's perhaps the question a day or two before your answer: my computer was manufactured and purchased just before October 2010, which has been cut for restoration placed disks shaped for the drives non - Advanced Format. All the following which has been reformatted accordingly. I contacted HP and bought the replacement of the recovery discs (made in 2012), that I received yesterday. After several hours of nerves and finger-crossing, it worked like a charm. The operating system has successfully recovered, and I couldn't be happier!

    I answer computer said of office right now, in fact! Thanks again.
