Have a Pavillion DV ^-3250us, Win 7, 64 Bit. WIFI does not illuminate

Wireless won't turn on; wired connection is fine.

HP wireless Asst says that the wireless is activated by the keyboard. Steady orange light & does not illuminate.

If I turn off the power & remove the battery, I can get a blue light when I turn on the PC.

But then the PC wants to update the driver.  When she did this, the problem returns.

Before replacing the BIOS, I decided to try something less drastic.

(Always to play with the BIOS that makes me sick at heart)

I noticed that the driver installation always fails.

But before the boot process that took well to the long, I noticed that I could turn the wireless card on & turn off with the F12 key.

But once the initialization is completed, the card might be disabled.

Therefore, I have concluded that the material of the wireless card was probably good.

Then, I deleted the driver and let Windows update select the BIOS install.

The next round of selected SW another update driver to install; and now everything works.

So something must have gotten corrupted and caused the wrong driver to settle.

  • Win 7 64 bit, SSO does not work on view 5 but it works on view 5.1

    We have the production environment with view 5.0 installed and win 7 32-bit deployed as linked clones and it works fine.

    But for some of our users, we must deploy win7 64 bit and here, we encountered a problem. When user loggs in win7 64 bit desktop single sign does not work, and users must enter the password and username ther once more before seeing their office.

    We have also installed with view 5.1 test environment and in this environment SSO on win7 64 bit works as expected.

    Any ideas why SSO does not work with 64 bit win7 and discover 5? Is this known bug or it's just me with this problem?  How to find the cause for it and where to look?

    PS Both environments are identical except for the version of view practicly.

    Hello

    We encountered the same problem within our environment.

    In our case, it was because the following has been set to active on the virtual machines via Group Policy;

    Computer config-> policies-> Windows settings-> security settings-> local policies-> Security Options

    Interactive logon: require no CTRL + ALT + DELETE

    Stop in group policy has solved the problem.

    Good luck.

  • Hi I have avg 2011 free add. Some components are on but the antivirus and a bit more does not illuminate. I click on update, this is the error I clicked fix says it all, but also failure update?

    Hello Bobtopper,

    What is the error message when you try to market the AVG antivirus?
    You turn on the AVG firewall or Windows Firewall?

    If you are having problems with AVG antivirus and you want to uninstall, you can download the Microsoft Security Essentials, which is downloadable for free. Security Essentials provides anti-virus, anti-spyware, anti-malware, etc..
    You can activate the automatic updates if you do not have to worry about updating the software.
    Click here for a link to download Microsoft Security Essentials.
    http://www.Microsoft.com/security_essentials/

    It is not recommended to have more than one antivirus installed because it could cause conflicts in the operating system. If you decide to use Microsoft Security Essentials, you will need to uninstall AVG Antivirus and remove all previous AntiVirus software before installing Security Essentials.

    Please reply back and let us know if we can help you further.

    Thank you

  • InDesign CS6 (Win 7 64 bit) - palletes does not not on monitor high density

    I have InDesign CS6 for years. Recently, I bought new 27 '' Dell P2715Q monitor with 3840x2160px. I also have a second monitor, the old Dell 2001FP with 1600x1200px which I use only for some pallets.

    No matter if the second monitor is connected or not, almost no pallets are working. I'm not able to click on anything (select font, color, move pages etc.). I can only click on objects on the page and select some tools (not all). Some pallets begin to work if I move from the main screen to the old ('Pages' Panel), but most of them don't work either. For example, I can also choose some shades of color, but some samples do not react even on the old monitor.

    Before, I bought this new monitor, I had two monitors as well, only not high densities. This problem apparently only occurs with the monitor high density. I tried to lower the resolution just to see if that helps, but it has not changed.

    Anyone has any ideas how to solve this problem? I am not able to co-operate at all at the moment, and when I contacted Adobe support, they said "support" for CS6 is only here to the forum user I'm afraid if I bought InDD CC, it will be the same and wasted money.

    Did you change the font size of Windows? See the signs and tools InDesign respond not to the clicks of the mouse (Windows 7/Vista)

    Ran the Scan, the system is secure.

    I was able to bypass stubborn files to transfer them to a flash drive and copy them to another folder.  I was then able to access.  Somehow I messed up the permissions in the previous transfers of old machines and OS.

    Thank you for your help and attention.

    Win 7 Backup and Restore does not recognize the USB flash drives for a backup image or a recovery disc.  Given that Windows 7 Starter Edition is used in many, if not most of the netbooks and netbooks have no optical drive, support for flash (thumb) drives would be very handy, especially for repair and recovery.

  • Satellite L670 - after Win 8 upgrade WIFI does not work properly

    Afteer upgrade to Win 8, the WiFi of my Satellite L670-128 has stopped working properly.

    The connection only works some time, usually only a few seconds before the connection is lost.
    After a few seconds or minutes the connection is restored, just soon to be lost again.

    Cannot download large files or even to see larger photos on normal web pages. Is there any Win8 driver for Broadcom coming 802.11n network card, or should I throw one 2.5 year old computer in the trash?

    Buy a usb-wlan card is not an option, as wireless mice is already "permanently" reserving one of the three usb ports and wlan card it would be just to the left...

    To my knowledge this L670 series isn t Win 8 taken in charge and this means that there is no special Win 8 drivers for this device, so I put t think you will find an another Win 8 driver for this WLan card.

    But do you really want to throw this laptop in the trash just because the wifi does not work properly running Win 8?
    The device was working properly under Win 7?

    I would recommend running a few Wlan test.
    For example; Disable wireless encryption on your router and Wifi connectivity with the open network do that just for testing purposes, perhaps you will need to change the type of encryption to test.

    Help, please.

    Here is how I fixed it:

    Go to control panel > network and Internet > network sharing Center

    Click on "Change adapter settings" in the left pane.

    Right click on your map. Select "Properties".

    There will be a box titled "this connection uses the following items."

    Uncheck anything that looks like it was installed by a third party (AVG, Avast, ZoneAlarm). In my case, the culprit was 'HTC NDIS Protocol Driver", who was installed by the software of my phone (HTC). Because it's not obvious what to uncheck, here is what I currently have checked in my system of work which should not cause a problem:

    KEEP THESE CHECKED:

    Client for Microsoft networks
    QoS Packet Scheduler
    File and Printer Sharing
    IP v6
    Internet Protocol v4
    Driver Link-Layer Topology Discovery map IO
    Link-Layer Topology Discovery recall

    Uncheck everything else.

    Go to network and sharing, disable and re-enable the adapter.
