• The WiFi Windows 8 will turn off intermittently.

  Original title: wifi turns off aspire v3 atheros windows 8.

  I have a brand new acer aspire laptop v3 - 771 g-6851. Atheros ar5bwb222 wifi adapter. the WiFi will go off intermittently. Windows diagnose connection program cannot find a problem, however, the wifi connection is restored once he finishes detection. After some tests, I also managed to understand that whenever the connection is lost, I can simply activate flight mode, and then turn off again, in order to get the wireless card back on and restore the connection with my router. I have a laptop windows 7 and a macbook pro laptop, both connect to the router with no problems. I used windows update to update the driver for the atheros card. Then, I went to the acer website and downloaded their latest driver and installed (version oct 2012). Having still intermittent disconnect every few minutes. Sometimes 3 minutes, sometimes 10.

  I wonder if the driver of the card wifi atheros and windows 8 are having communication problems. Alternatively, I could have a faulty wifi adapter? Or is it a magical driver out there? Is this a known problem that can get fixed with SP1 for Windows 8? Recommendations?

  Hi Benjamin & Jeffrey

  I had exactly the same problems with my Acer Aspire V3 - 771G with 8 Win x 64 installed.

  The same Driver Atheros von too.

  After trying a week and a half after the hours of work at home, I had a last option

  before sending the new laptop back in Services.

  I is gone from Acer Support & downloaded the latest Bios Update and the pilot

  for the Wi - Fi adapter.

  After uninstall of & install the new driver for the adapter, restarted Windows and had the same thing

  Problem than usuall, no connection what so ever.

  During the week, I tried that Nicolas had written but still did not get far.

  Then I asked myself, I should or should not... Because I was so frustrated I installed the most recent Bios Update.

  Open windows & whoopie it finally works again.

  I hope that I could help with this message, see that there are more people out there with the same problems.

• OfficeJet Pro 8620: WiFi will not turn off

  Because of a problem with my modem compatible wireless (the problem being that its ethernet ports became defective), for awhile, I had turn the WiFi feature to provide Internet connectivity to my iMac.  Similarly, for the first time, I enabled WiFi on my HP Officejet Pro 8620 so I could keep a printing capability.

  Once my new modem arrived, I restored my complete ethernet network between the modem, my iMac (and other devices) and the Office jet printer 8620 Pro.  Everything works fine now!

  However, the printer Officejet Pro 8620 WiFi ability not shut down despite the operation by an ethernet cable and there is no WiFi from my modem.  I know the Officejet Pro 8620 always emits WiFi like my iPad and my iPhone indicate that it is.  As my wife is concerned about these RF transmissions that are on the other side of the wall adjacent to our bed, she asked me to turn off the Officejet Pro 8620 WiFi.  I've restored the "Default network" printer, but this is not the case.

  According to the instructions of the printer, 'Wireless does not work with an Ethernet cable connected to the printer' However this is clearly not there.  How can I solve this?

  Your WiFi is turned off.  Your wireless Direct is not off.  Disable wireless directly into the printer.   Info is in the User Guide.

• TouchSmart 600-1315xt will turn off by itself

  My subject PC that is running Windows 7 turns off on its own when it is sitting idle for some time. When in use, it works very well and when you stop screen saver will come after 10 minutes, then after sitting idle for 30 minutes it will fit off the coast. If someone knows what could be the problem?

  The Power Options in Windows 7 settings would be the second thing to check after inspecting admission and exhaust ports of your PC. If there is any dust bunnies blocking the air circulation while there could be quite a show of heat that could cause the CPU to stop the system.

  Best regards

  You can reuse your current XP only if the version is not OEM.  OEM is a version that must be supported directly by the manufacturer of the computer first.  OEM is always linked to the first PC, the license is activated on.  This license is suppused to 'die' with the PC.  Now, there is a "grey area" on the definition of a PC, but accepted the more common definition all came to the conclusion that the 'mother' is the building block for the definition.  Therefore, change of motherboards would mean you have a "new" PC

• Fuze will shut off randomly

  Fuze will shut off randomly, then it takes a few seconds to turn on. After that I see the symbol of welcome, it says media refreshing and it takes about 5 minutes to complete. It is very annoying! Please a little help.

  Normally, the "rocket" is enough to update the database on data transfers.  If the SD/SDHC card is not inserted, the database will not refreshing at startup.

  I have an eye on the music files for problems with ID3 tags and album art files especially.

  First of all, connect the "rocket" in MSC mode and check the memory of Sansa to find errors in the file system: right-click on my computer, and then select manage.  Click on the "rocket" and check the drive for errors.  Do this for the two logical drive letters assigned to the "rocket".

  Don't forget that your ID3 tags are written with tags ID3 v2.3 ISO 8859-1 (Latin-1) .  Great use for this is MP3Tag, a free utility.  In addition, be sure that your JPGs for your music (cover) are 300 x 300 or smaller.  The images are not necessarily greater then 15 to 20 KB or more, otherwise, you can run into questions.

  The "rocket" can freeze and possible can turn off if you try to play a corrupted music file.

  A simple way to know is by following the steps above, or format the "rocket" and reload your music a few tracks at a time, to see that all is well.  Remember, the "rocket" Formatting erases all the data (media) of the device, so have copies ready to reload on your Sansa backup.
