• Satellite Pro L20: Adapter WLan has stopped working and will not allow

  Hello

  I have a L20 Pro Satalite, which works very well. However, just before Christmas 2006, the adapter wireless (Atheros AR5005G) has stopped working.

  Windows XP Pro SP2 can see the adapter and network connections shows as being activated, but he sees not all networks.

  The Atheros Client Utility says that the adapter pases troubleshooting TI test diagnosis up to the Radio, when he says that the Radio is disabled and must be enabled in the Client utility.

  'Excellent!', I thought: opening the utility forward. Looked in the Action menu to find "turn on the Radio" is greyed out!

  Help!

  Any help is very welcome.

  See you soon,.

  Barry Smith.

  Is there a hardware option to enable and disable your wireless network card? (switch)
  You upgrade your Wlan driver recently? (If Yes, maybe with the wrong driver?)

  I had a similar problem once and resolved through driver updates... want to give it a try?

  You can download the driver generic Atheros (Version 5.0.0.107) available here:

• CD/DVD drive has stopped working and now not recognized in 'My Computer'

  I have a HP Pavilion computer to office model a6109n, product number GG038AA, S/N CNH7250K0M. I've been running Windows 7 for 2 years. My CD player recently stopped working. I can't attribute this failure to any specific event that would have led to it.  When a CD is inserted, the green light comes on for about 6 seconds then turns off. The CD player is not long represented on the 'My Computer' to readers list. The CD drive appears in Device Manager. I tried to roload the driver for CD drive, Windows gave a message stating that the best driver is already installed. I have no error message and ran three programs different viruses with no problems. I've also updated Windows available current configuration that has not solved the problem. Thinking it was a hardware problem, I checked the CD drive cable connections and that did not help.  I replaced the CD drive with a new drive for HP and had the same symptoms. I returned the new CD player and he traded for an external CD drive and had the same symptoms in all USB ports. I tried every USB port with a flash player and the flash player saved on my computer in all USB ports. If my CD drive is being recognized by the Device Manager but not in my computer. It's okay if it's an internal or external drive. Everything else on the computer works fine. More troubleshooting ideas?  Thank you.

• HP Pavilion dv6-6b57sa suddenly stopped working and will not now to power on. Help, please!

  OK, so I'm a new student and my laptop has just decided to stop working. I had the laptop for 2 years but I have not used until I came to College. Long story short, I wanted to use it as a working laptop and one im using now for media.

  Anyway, I started the dv6 and it was fine so I jumped to get a coffee. As I got home I heard a click and then the screen was cut off and now it will not turn back. I tried the hard reset, take out the battery for 15 minutes. The battery charge indicator does not come on either. I use an original HP charger and have connected it to a plug adapter multiple with an influx of cutting on it.

  No LED, no noise, no charge indicator. Can someone help me with this, extremely upset I've saved this laptop for her than to die in the first week.

  Not sure, but there's less chance of it. Given that the laptop is not put under tension with other adapters. You must take it to store to get the verified motherboard.

• I have a computer running VISTA. The CD-ROM/DVD-rom does not work and can not read the CD of the program that I placed in it.

  It won't read a DVD.  It will not read ANY CD or DVD.  I tried 12 different CD/DVD.  This isn't an upgrade to Vista; the computer came "made for Vista" with Vista installed on it.  I had added Nero.  I removed Nero.  I did all the updates. I have not released the driver and reinstalled.  He claims to have the latest driver software, but it won't work.  The computer can see the CD/DVD, but he calls it a 'CDROM '.  It is not the case.  It is a DVD/Cd-RW with Labelflash.

  I did everything suggested that past discussions.  I ran FIXIT program that claims that the drive works properly.  It is not the case.

  I tried to get various programs to recognize.  They cannot see the installed media.

  I uninstalled iTunes.

  Please do not give me the answer of cut-and - paste stock; It does not work.

  Please tell me what to do to make Vista see the media inserted in the CD/DVD-RW drive.

  Thank you.

  Then go to right click on UNINSTALL - - CD/DVD - Device Manager CHECK THE DRIVERS to REMOVE and
  continue.

  Reset.

  Occasionally, install an upgrade or a re - install will fix the problem and of course the drive or other hardware issues
  could be at stake.

  =====================================

  Here's the answer, just in case there is something you don't have, and I start up and down.

  Try this - Panel - Device Manager - CD/DVD - double-click on the device - driver tab - click
  Update the drivers (this will probably do nothing) - then RIGHT click the drive - UNINSTALL - REBOOT
  This will refresh the default driver stack. Even if the reader does not appear to continue below.
  
  Then, work your way through these - don't forget the drive might be bad, could be a loose cable
  or slight corrosion on the contacts (usually for a laptop) and other issues.

  Another possibility is that the cables are loose. Remove ALL power, then make sure that the cables in both

  Some DVD players do not use the Windows default drivers so check with the manufacturer of system and

  Hello!

  Normally, if the boot of t computer doesn't and you can see anything on the screen it s a hardware malfunction, maybe the motherboard needs to be replaced.

  But in your case, I'll try this:
  Remove the AC adapter and the battery. Wait one hour, then reconnect the two devices. Try to start the laptop.

  If it doesn't work, you need to contact a service provider for help. They can check the laptop and determine the cause of this problem.

  And your data, you can easily without danger on the other computer. Just put the HARD drive in the external HARD drive enclosure. You can then connect the HARD drive to another laptop to backup data.
  But normally all data should be backed up already! ;)

  Hi Anna1298,

  ·         Did you do changes on the computer before the show?

  Follow the suggestions below for a possible solution:

  Method 1:

  Step 1: Start in safe mode and check if the problem persists.

  Start your computer in safe mode

  http://Windows.Microsoft.com/en-us/Windows-Vista/start-your-computer-in-safe-mode

   

  Step 2: If the problem does not occur in safe mode, you can put your system to boot (in normal mode) to solve the problem.

  How to troubleshoot a problem by performing a clean boot in Windows Vista or in Windows 7

  http://support.Microsoft.com/kb/929135

   

  Note: After troubleshooting, be sure to configure the computer to start as usual as mentioned in step 7 provided in the above article.

  Method 2: Try the SFC (System File Checker) scan on the computer.

   

  How to use the System File Checker tool to fix the system files missing or corrupted on Windows Vista or Windows 7

  http://support.Microsoft.com/kb/929833

   

  Method 3: I also suggest that you scan your computer with the Microsoft Security Scanner, which would help us to get rid of viruses, spyware and other malicious software.

  The Microsoft Security Scanner is a downloadable security tool for free which allows analysis at the application and helps remove viruses, spyware and other malware. It works with your current antivirus software.

  Note: The Microsoft Safety Scanner ends 10 days after being downloaded. To restart a scan with the latest definitions of anti-malware, download and run the Microsoft Safety Scanner again.

  Important: During the scan of the hard drive if bad sectors are found, the scanner tries to repair this sector, all available on which data may be lost.

  Let us know if that helps.
