The Atheros driver update / / no network found

Hello

After having the support assistant yell me for 2 days on updates, I thought it was finally time to upgrade my HP Pavilion g6-2230sa Notebook PC.

Is there a driver for Atheros 802.11b/g/n wifi adapter AR9485 update, which seems to have destroyed my adapter. Troubleshooting shows no problem, but it is impossible to find all the networks.

Thinking (read: know) that it is a driver error, I tried to roll back the driver to the previous version that worked very well. I couldn't restore the driver becase there was no option for. I guess that's because it has been updated through the support Wizard.

After trying for two hours to get in touch with HP's award-winning customer service, I gave up and found myself here, at the mercy of everything what you forum fans.

If someone has experienced this situation or something similar and have a solution, please, please, let me know what magic you have to fix!

Thanks in advance.

After 4 hours of tweaking, pull hair and cigarettes I finally fixed.

Several attempts to restore the system and uninstalling the AV and other programs not factor eventually led to a restoration of the system successfully.

Feature WiFi is back and I will never ignore my scream HP support assistant.

Thanks to those who helped, much love.

  • 4K @ 60 Hz fichier_ecriture deleted on the bootcamp driver update?

    Hello, I currently have a 2015 Macbook pro with a M370x AMD 10 under bootcamp with the graphics driver 6.0 Windows Update installled.

    I am running a LG 27UD68-P on the mini display port with an adapter Club3D HDMI 2.0.

    This will run out 4K @ 60 Hz very well on Mac OS X and same bootcamp without updating to 6.0 graphics driver was last updated.

    Now that I've updated, my refresh rate is only limited to 30 hz, even if AMD Radeon is the maximum resolution supported and the refresh rate is 60 Hz 4K.

    I've updated the graphics card drivers previously using the method of unofficial workaround for the AMD driver version, but I re-installed Windows since then and you just want to know if it is possible with the latest updated version? If this is not the case, what would be the next driver update be scheduled for possibly?

    Thank you.

  • Windows Update includes the Toshiba driver updates?

    Hello

    Windows Update includes the Toshiba driver updates?

    And if yes, do you know what drivers are included in Windows Update and that would be excluded?

    Thank you...

    Hello

    Microsoft and Toshiba updates are two different things.
    Toshiba drivers are offered by Toshiba, and these drivers are tested by Toshiba. Toshiba has developed a small tool called TEMPRO. This tool runs in the background and look for information on available updates.
    All updates of drivers, tools and utilities does not update automatically. It can be done by the owner of the laptop. TEMPRO just pick up info on the net and to inform the owner of the laptop.

    Microsoft updates are probably known to you. These updates are Microsoft and Toshiba has no influence on this.
    When you check the list of available updates may have included updates to the WLAN/LAN card, driver of the touchpad and device ACPI Toshiba x 64. This is defined as optional updates and cannot be updated.

    To be honest you should not update at all. For hardware use drivers provided by Toshiba only.

    To update the drivers, the simplest method is to install through windows updates.

    Check the updates of Windows for the latest driver updates.

    Check Windows updates if driver updates are available. If so, the same install and check if it helps.

    • Press Windows key + W on the keyboard.
    • Type the updates in the search bar and click the Windows Update icon from the result of the search.
    • In the Windows Update window, click on the link: check the updates from the left side of the window to receive a new list of updates.

    Hi I want to m6 - k088ca it came with Windows 8, I've updated to 8.1 has a 64-bit operating system. I spilt tea on it and fried hard drive.

    Try to save money I bought a 500 GB hard drive instead of a 1 TB of HDD, it can with.

Discover your forum, I discovered that I could not use the Image of the system on nothing less than what was originally on my computer a 1 TB hard drive. So, I went out and I tried to install Image system on it. I was unable to implement the recovery program I had before. I went to the boot options and he set up to boot from the key USB didn't keep get no boot device found message. After trying several different ways to do it, I made a test drive and kept getting unavailable message.

    Just the intel graphics in your machine then under cards, Graphics Device Manager right click on the device intel and select the software high element of the page "update driver".  Which automatically turns to the internet and search for the most recent driver.  He can ask permission to load and you should say Yes if so. That's all you should have to do.

  • The graphics driver update failed: 'WindowsUpdate_800705B4""WindowsUpdate_dt000"

    A long download and install driver for Nvidia ended with the message of this failure. What should I do?

    You should not be installing drivers from Windows Update anyway. I don't know why it failed but maybe because it is the wrong driver for your video card. Often, this happens with the drivers available on Windows Update and is one of the reasons we main technicians say do not install the drivers from there.

    Here is some general information about the drivers. Please note the first sentence of the information, which is the most important part.

    The first law of Driver Updates is "if it's not broken, don't fix it". Normally if everything works, you want to leave things as they are. The exception is that heavy players usually want to update their video and sound drivers for every last bit of absolute performance of the equipment to get the best frame rate. If you are not one of these people, you need not update your drivers, if there is no problem you're trying to solve.

    Never get the drivers from Windows Update. Bring:

    1. site of the device mftr. ; OR
    2. site of the card mother mftr. If the material is on board; OR
    3. website of the OEM manufacturer for your specific machine if you have a PC OEM (HP, Dell, Sony, etc.).

    Read the installation instructions on the Web site where you get the drivers.

    To find out what hardware is in your computer:

    1. read all documentation that you got when you purchased the computer.
    2. If the computer is OEM, access the site Web of the OEM for your specific model machine and look at the specs (you'll be there to get the drivers anyway)
    3. download, install and run a program of inventory of the free system like Belarc Advisor or System Information for Windows.
