Lenovo S10e WLAN WIFI driver problem solved

I recently reinstalled XP on a S10e but could not get the WLAN to work. I have installed all the drivers on the site of lenovo for the S series broadcom drivers but without success. Then were

2 weeks later I then re-formatted and installed Windows Vista but the same questions again.

Solution

Go to Device Manager and select the Details tab

Summer of my number VEN 8086 DeV 4327

I then went to http://www.pcidatabase.com

the details entered and found this camera was an Intel (R) WiFi Link 5100 AGN (according to the id of the chip)

(use the search function of the browser with the device id number-saves a lot of time to go through the list)

follow the link to http://downloadcenter.intel.com/Default.aspx?lang=eng

and found the corresponding device id

Wireless > Intel Centrino WIFI Products > Intel WIFI Link 5300 and Intel WIFI Link 5100

the driver for my OS installed and now everything works 100%

It seems that the device in the BIOS id is incorrect or that it really is an Intel chip not broadcom.

I hope this helps many people who have the same problem that I had and ends the traul endless on getting the WIFI works again.

Good luck and let me know if it works for you

Also all the other drivers have been installed automatically with the VISTA install no need for driver downloads (except bluetooth installed under automatic updates - is not I use it anyway)

  • HP pavilion 1200tx g4 laptop: wifi driver problem

    Hello world

    I can't find the Wifi driver for my system and get some annoying drivers in the Device Manager window.  . Help me and provide me with the details of the correct driver.

    Hello:

    You already have all the drivers except the wireless card, depending on your screenshot.

    The hardware ID you posted confirms that the wireless card is the Broadcom adapter, so I don't know why this driver did not work.

    Try to manually install the driver Broadcom I posted above (sp57965).

    Go to Device Manager and click on the network controller needing drivers.

    Click the driver tab.  Click on set to update driver.  Select her browse my computer for driver software option and navigate to the folder of the driver that was created when you ran the file.

    This file will be located in C:\SWSetup\sp57965.  Make sure that the include subfolders is selected and the driver should install.

    As you can see from this partial copy and paste of the installation of the driver information file, the hardware ID for the wireless card you have in your laptop is supported by this driver.

  • WiFi driver problem

    I have a laptop Y50 in a few days and I noticed that when I install the drivers for the wifi from the cd provided with the computer WiFi works well but with maximum 72 Mbit connection. When I choose windows to search for drivers more recent it installs latest, the connection goes to 150 Mbps, which is the maximum of my router but with limited connectivity and does not work. I chose to roll back the driver, wifi still works well, but back to 72 Mbps. I tried the drivers from the support section Lenovo that the same problem occurs. I tried the drivers of Intel support page but with the same results. Everything works fine with 72 Mbit connection I get with the old drivers, but I'd really like to do repair and use the full potential of your PC.

    I managed to figure out what was the problem after all, and he was not with the drivers. I use a router Tp-link model 740N stretching on 2.4 Ghz frequency. When I install the latest drivers for the card wi - fi adapter default setting is set to work on 2.4 5.4 Ghz mode or auto. This setting prevents the laptop to connect successfully with the router. I changed it to prefer the 2.4 Ghz band on which my router transmits and the wi - fi on the laptop got working with the maximum 150 Mbps connection between the laptop and the router. So far, works very well.

    At the back of the laptop must be a sticker that tells you exactly which module you have. View and download the drivers that are mentioned on the label.

    Also, if for some reason you still have no improvement, try to install another driver who is more recent. Based on the above condition number, I was able to find this:

    Recently, I noticed that my CD/DVD stopped working. He turns, but nothing happens; the disc is not read.
    I use Windows 7 Home Premium 64 - bit on an HP Touchsmart tx2z.

    I ran the Microsoft FixIt program through http://support.microsoft.com/kb/982116 and it has identified the following problem: 'HL-DT-ST DVDRAM GT20L periph. CdRom SATA has a driver problem. The driver faces a problem of Plug-and-Play device. »

  • Edge 2 - driver problems / random black screen

    I have a relatively new Lenovo Edge 2 a few months old.

    Problem I have currently: screen goes black randomly, but the light is always on, no mouse pointer, sound turns off too (similar to the hibernation perhaps?).

    I get a message at the beginning to the top there is a problem with one of the pilots. But when I check the drivers, everything seems to be up to date (its set to automatically in any case).

    I had a similar problem before, another message from pilot. The problem was that my laptop don't would not connect to wifi at less than the power mode has been totally exacerbated. Something about the laptop thinking its low in battery mode and the abandonment of wifi connection, I connected via electrician and updated the driver wifi I think and the problem solved. What is a similar problem? There seems to be a problem with this laptop and the sleep mode / low status for the battery maybe mode driver. How can I remedy this?

    In response to the reports of customer displays or screens turning off on Lenovo while in use systems and works on battery, Lenovo released a solution via the Intel Management Engine Firmware update, v.11.0.0.1176.

    The Intel Firmware has been approved for the following models:

    Firmware Intel ME can be downloaded here: http://support.lenovo.com/us/en/downloads/ds105001

    If the solution provided by Lenovo does not resolve the problem for you, other customers report that a workaround solution provided by the MattDN93 client also solves the problem.
