• After a clean install of Windows Vista, Intel Wifi card is installed and activated, but does not detect the network.

  Wireless card not working after a clean install of Windows Vista

  I did a clean install of Windows Vista Home Premium on my HP Pavilion of 32 bits. I've completely updated Windows via Service Pack 2. Given that the clean install, my wireless card, Intel (r) Wireless WiFi Link 4965AGN, was not able to detect all the networks. The Wifi card is listed under NICs as being installed and activated. the hardware on my laptop Wifi switch is set on "on" and the light is blue, indicating that the card is working.

  I can connect to the internet if I connect physically my computer to the modem with an ethernet cable wireless, so the modem isn't the problem. Other computers can connect to the wireless modem, so my Wifi modem functionality is not the problem. The problem with my computer.

  I tried to uninstall the Intel driver and reboot my computer with the generic driver. Install the driver generic, but my wireless card has not always worked. I then ran an update of windows, nothing helps.

  I tried to install the "Intel® PRO /? Wireless and WiFi Link"drivers for Windows Vista (32-bit 13.1.1.1 the latest version and the previous version 12.4.4.5 32-bit) for the Intel® Wireless WiFi Link 4965AGN directly from the Intel Web site at http://downloadcenter.intel.com/SearchResult.aspx?lang=eng&ProductFamily=Wireless+Networking&ProductLine=Intel%C2%AE+WiFi+Products&ProductProduct=Intel%C2%AE+Wireless+WiFi+Link+4965AGN. The map didn't always work with a driver.

  In addition to the pilots, I also downloaded a tool of diagnosis of Intel (Intel® PROSet /?) Utility of WiFi wireless connection for Windows Vista 32 -? Bit). Said diagnostic tool the WiFi card is not installed or enabled, however, Device Manager maintains that he is also installed and active.

  Is there a problem that causes Device Manager to say that all is well with the card, but does not map to realize that they diminish the radio signals? Everything's fine, diagnostic, it just does not detect networks around him. Help, please.

  Hello

  The on/off switch actually works?

  Since it is an internal adapter to ensure it is enabled in the settings of configuration/F2 (BIOS/CMOS) often like you
  Start - so look at the screen.

  Have you tried the computer on other WiFi networks? You had a WiFi type problem before the
  Re-install of Vista?

  ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

  Your router could be suspicious here, you have successfully updated its firmware as a possible solution? And I would like to
  Update your WiFi drivers on computers. How you are positioned in the router? Are there
  obstacles in the path?

  Actually try updating your driver and disabling the network logon.

  Control Panel - network - write down of the brand and the model of the Wifi - double click top - tab of the driver - write
  version - click the driver update (cannot do something that MS is far behind the pilots of certification). Then
  Right click on the Wifi device and UNINSTALL - Reboot - it will refresh the driver stack.

  Look at the sites of the manufacturer for drivers - and the manufacturer of the device manually.

  How to install a device driver in Vista Device Manager

  Download - SAVE - go where you put it - right click – RUN AS ADMIN.

  You can download several at once however restart after the installation of each of them.

  After watching the system manufacturer, you can check the manufacturer of the device an even newer version. (The
  manufacturer of system become your backup policies).

  Repeat for network (NIC) card and is a good time to get the other updated drivers as Vista like
  updated drivers.

  I would also turn off auto update for the drivers. If the updates Windows suggests a just HIDE as they
  are almost always old, and you can search drivers manually as needed.

  Make sure you know the details of connection to your wireless router - SSID and password.

  You lose connection when you do and have to redo your logon.

  Control Panel - Network & Sharing Center - right, click Customize - page set of network locations.
  lower left click on merge or delete network locations - REMOVE all instances of your network (and the
  others you don't use anymore) - REBOOT. Start - Connect To log on to the network.

  If I do a new install of WINDOWS VISTA I have to format to reformat my hard disks/drives?

  Hello

  What is an OEM of Windows 7 license, or a license to retail that you have bought yourself?

  If preinstalled license of Windows 7 OEM or system integrator, it is related that it is installed on the original computer.

  BUT a retail sales license can be installed on a single computer at any time.

  With the help of different methods to reinstall the hard drive for a clean reinstall Vista formats.

  Here are the different methods to reinstall Vista.

  There is no Windows Vista downloads available from Microsoft.

  You can contact your computer manufacturer and ask them to send you a set of recovery disks.

  They should do this for a small fee.

  To reinstall Vista using their recovery disk/s, you start from the 1st recovery disk they provide and follow the manufacturer's instructions to reinstall:

  You need to change the Boot order to make the DVD/CD drive 1st in the boot order:

  How to change the Boot order in BIOS:

  http://pcsupport.about.com/od/fixtheproblem/SS/bootorderchange.htm

  "How to replace Microsoft software or hardware, order service packs and replace product manuals.

  http://support.Microsoft.com/kb/326246

  And if you have never received a recovery disk when you bought your computer, there should be a recovery Partition on the hard drive to reinstall Vista on how you purchased your computer.

  The recovery process can be started by pressing a particular combination of the key or keys at startup. (Power on / start)

  Maybe it's F10, F11, Alt + F10, etc., depending on the manufacturer.

  Ask them to the proper key sequence.

  And if you do not score a manufacturer of recovery on your hard drive, you should be able to make your own recovery from her disks to reinstall the operating system.

  Go to programs > name of the manufacturer of your computer > then their system or recovery tools software topics for them, depending on how it is formulated.

  If you can't find any reference to it, contact the manufacturer for advice on how to make these recovery disks.

  Some manufacturers have more available Vista recovery disks.

  If this happens, you may need to try this instead:

  You can also borrow and use a Microsoft Vista DVD, which contains the files for the different editions of Vista (Home Basic, Home Premium, Business and Ultimate) must be installed. The product key on your computer / Laptop box determines what Edition is installed.

  Other manufacturers recovery DVDs are should not be used for this purpose.

  And you need to know the version of 'bit' for Vista, as 32-bit and 64-bit editions come on different DVDs

  Here's how to do a clean install of Vista using a DVD of Vista from Microsoft:

  "How to do a clean install and configure with a full Version of Vista '

  And read this information on Windows 7, before you install it:

  Go to your computer / computer laptop manufacturer Web site and see if Windows 7 drivers are available for your make and model computer / laptop.

  If this is not available, Windows 7 will not properly work for you.

• Do a clean install of Windows Vista 32 8.1; advice on the new partition formats.

  Hi, I'm going to do my clean install of Windows Vista 32 8.1 today.

  Need advice on the size for my new partition (s).

  Currently defined as the partitions:

  Total: free:

  OS (c                          99.7G          11.9G

  Data (D G 111, 14.5 G)

  HP_Recovery (E 12.0 G 1.97 G)

  I am running:

  Laptop HP Pavilion DV9700 Entertainment

  32 Vista Home Premium, SP1

  Basically I want a suitable partition for the new Windows OS 8.1 (more room for restore points).

  And the rest of the data area, I guess, as if I had originally.

  Does anyone have any other ideas, because I start from scratch.

• Clean install of Windows Vista Edition family

  Due to a Virus, I had to perform a cold install of Windows Vista Edition family.  After completion and activation of the software, I received a message that my product is already in use.  It was a clean install on the same computer that has more than 3 years.

  It's normal. To activate it, you use telephone activation. It's free in most countries. See this link from my Web site: http://vistasupport.mvps.org/product_key_already_in_use.htm

• Can a system pre-installed with Windows Vista be manually downgraded to Windows XP?

  Can a system pre-installed with Windows Vista be manually downgraded to Windows XP?

  original title: Windows Vista to Windows XP?

  Can a system pre-installed with Windows Vista be manually downgraded to Windows XP?

  No, you can't downgrade. But you can probably * clean install * Windows XP.

  I say "probably" because there is a potential problem with drivers XP being available for all hardware. If the computer is a laptop, this risk is greater. So check with the manufacturer or on their web site to make sure that all the drivers you need do not exist for XP.

• Parallels VM - vm windows as a guest operating system - it can actually install on Windows (vista) VMS

  I bought Dw autonomous cs6 for windows and installed on a desktop computer once...? This means that I can install in your laptop? This laptop can be a Mac with Parallels VM - vm windows as a guest operating system - so can actually install on Windows (vista) vm?

  Usually with Adobe software you can install and run on up to two systems - including virtual machines - provided that they are not used at the same time.

  To move your license, it is also relatively simple to transfer the software between computers, if that's what you never want or need to do.

• After a clean install of Windows Vista Home Premium, how long will it take to run updates and it will take a lot of bandwidth?

  updates after clean install of Vista Home premium

  I plan on upgrading the hard drive on my laptop two year old, which will require a clean install of Vista Home Edition full.  I live in a remote with the satellite internet service.  I would like to know in advance what will happen after the installation with the updates of the program.  I will ask you to install them? It would take a lot of bandwidth?

  Hi EllenCB,

  Welcome to Windows Vista community responses.

  Once you make a clean installation on your hard drive is erased. Now, when you install the operating system return updates that have been deleted will be delivered by Windows update to install on your computer. To save time and bandwidth, you can directly install Service pack 1 and Service pack 2 for Vista which would contain more updates. Of course when you run Windows update and when you try to download from the internet, your download speed will decrease. It is best to keep your system up to date which will allow your version of Windows to run better.

  Before installing the update, run the checksur tool, this tool is running an ad hoc analysis of inconsistencies that might prevent future maintenance operations. Download the tool from the link below.
