Wireless card doesn't work after Windows Update

I have a Compaq Presario F730US with Vista. I have installed Windows Mobile Device Center on it, and the computer has stopped recognizing wireless card. Then, after trying to restore the original drivers and do several other things, I have done restore the computer originally installed at the factory.  The wireless worked well.  However, as soon as I updated all Microsoft Updates and before installing Windows Mobile Device, the wireless card no longer works again.  I restored the drivers, and it worked the first time.  Then a few other updates came through, and I can't get working again.  Any suggestions?  It's a Broadcom Wireless card. I saw that a gentleman has been upgraded for its presario to Windows 7 and had the same problem on another post and never had resolution.

The normal rule is to never accept update from Windows update device driver.

Always bring the manufacturer.

  • laptop keyboard stopped working after Windows update.

    have a toshiba satellite A505 laptop and the keyboard stops working after Windows Update reboots. We reinstalled Windows 7, which fixed the problem until the updates have come. Now the keyboard is unresponsive. Sounds like a software problem, no material. Also checked the keyboard drivers that are up to date.

    As a first response, go to the control panel, device, keyboard, keyboard Manager and right click, uninstall it and let it rediscover Windows and then reinstall it.

    It suits it much of the time.

  • Broadcom Wireless stopped working after Windows updates

    Hello, everyone!

    I have a Pavilion dv6000 with wireless network. Everything was OK, but last Monday the blue wireless light was suddenly always amber and me did not have wireless access. These are the facts about my problem:

    * I reset my laptop to factory - wireless configuration works very well

    * Windows Update all installed, but one, updates - wireless works fine

    * I installed the new Windows Live Messenger - WIRELESS STOPED working

    * I uninstalled Windows Live Messenger - wireless works fine

    * Windows Update installed .NET Framework 3.5 (it was the update of Windows I jumped at step 2)-without WIRE EFFONDRES WORKING

    And now, my problem is that even if I try to "roll back" to a "restore point" before installing .NET, I get an error and I don't seem to be able to "Uninstall".NET 3.5. On the other hand, the pilot "Broadcom Wireless 802.11 g" has disappeared from the Device Manager and I don't seem to be able to reinstall it, or not reinstalling patches 'HP Wireless Manager' the problem.

    Can you help me, please?

    Thanks in advance,

    Work on laptop of my boss's son is having the same issue... I got to work by going into safe mode device manager and delete all references to pci bridge and restart... xp detects the wireless card as well as all pci bridge components and everything is golden... update XP sp3 now and go see if only the pipes still wireless card... will put in day this post when finished... im on xp, but I'm sure it would work for vista too many... questions you can email [email protected]

    * Update *.

    Installation of XP Service Pack 3 has made clear the wireless card again... is returned in Manager mode and the security apparatus and remove all references to the PCI subsystem devices except Bus PCI and ISA standard PCI bridge and rebooted and bam wireless card is back... it is quite boring... my recommendation would be to turn the builtin wireless power off and go buy a wireless usb card and do with it...

  • HP Pavilion 9500: Supported wireless card doesn't work is not in Windows 10

    I just bought a new card WiFi Intel Centrino Ultimate-N 6300 to my PC HP Pavilion 9500/entertainment because the original a (WiFi Link 4965AGN) is no longer supported on Windows 10. I have the Driver IRQL NOT LESS or EQUAL (Netwlv.64.sys) BSOD a few times a day.  According to Intel, the Ultimate_N 6500 is a supported card, but once I installed it, it will fail to start; He told me that my network card is not taken in charge and remove it please.

    Here, any help would be greatly appreciated!

    Thank you!!

    Then, you will need to return the o/s supported to ensure that the equipment works as I have said, you use what works for her, not what you want. What you want and what works are the two different side of the same coin.

    I guess the easy option would be the easiest route to take. I wasn't going for simple, I expected a little more creative way to solve this problem; workaround to allow W10 supports my original legacy wireless card or a way to remove the restrictions on the white list by HP to enable my new card.   It seems that this is not the right forum for this.

    The wireless on my Satellite L500 worked perfectly before you update windows. However, after the updat when you try to connect to a wireless connection, it says that "no connection is available.

    I then clicked on fix to try to find a solution. Then the message "the diagnostic policy service does not work. Using Ctrl + Alt + Delete I went on services and attempted to start the DPS manually, but the message "Diagnstic political service on Local computer started and stopped. Some services stop automatically if they are not in use by other services or programs. »

  • Keyboard does not work after windows update

    The keyboard of my laptop S series suddenly stopped working after that she completed an update of windows. Another strange thing is that the wireless only turns off even when the laptop is turned off. Everything else seems to work fine except for two things.

    First thing I did was to restore the system back to before the update of windows, but nothing has changed. Then I tried to uninstall the keyboard driver then by restarting the computer, after which it automatically reinstalled the driver but the keyboard still did not work.

    Then I "refreshed" system, but nothing has changed then either. And finally, I reset the factory settings and for a little while, the wireless light turns off, but then he came back even if I had not turned on the laptop. (Update: I just changed the laptop and the wireless light disappeared so... If all goes well he will not return as a sign of improvement.) There was no change to the keyboard.

    Additional details on my laptop that may or may not have something to do with the problem:

    It is currently running Windows Pro 8 on a 64 bit system and is less than a year.

    I accidentally spilled tea really diluted on the laptop a month ago, but the laptop was working again fine until windows update a few days ago. There is no significant problem caused by the spill other than a few sticky keys who take off on their overtime and that the sensors of the keyboard backlight no longer works correctly.

    Any advice on what else I might be able to try to try to again take the keyboard in a usable state would be great.

    Hi rhel!

    If the keyboard still does not work while in the BIOS, then it means that you have here a hardware failure, and the only way to solve that is to have the repaired computer. You can visit this page to start the repair process.

  • Wireless card doesn't work on HP G5370uk

    I have a pc HP G5370uk and recently tried the preview of windows 8. Deciding that I didn't like it, I reinstalled my windows 7 64 bit operating system.

    Everything is back to where it was with the exception of the wireless adapter. It worked fine before and during windows 8 try, but now, the only way I can connect to the internet is via an ethernet cable. There is no signal indicator showing the taskbar.

    I checked in Device Manager and it says I have a REALTEK PCIe GBE FAMILY CONTROLLER under network adapters.

    In the other devices section, it's showing the NETWORK CONTROLLER, which shows a yellow exclamation point. I tried to date by a right click and update driver, but it says that it cannot find the driver. He also says the same thing when I connected to the internet via ethernet.

    I also downloaded the relevant drivers from the HP website and installed, but it doesn't help.

    I hope someone can help.

    Paul, you're an absolute star mate. Worked very well.

    Thank you very much.

  • Edge 15 0319 - 26u wireless card doesn't work!

    I reinstalled Windows 7 Professional and that you have installed more updates.  Unable to get up and running wireless card.  I installed several drivers for the card from the website of lenovo, but without success!  My laptop is useless for me wireless!

    Thanks for the reply but I found the solution.  I did some research and found that if I installed this driver http://support.lenovo.com/en_US/downloads/detail.page?DocID=DS014964, which does not appear on my downloads page machines, the wireless lan device works correctly.  I don't know if it's the right driver, but it is the only driver I have my wireless nic to work.  Thanks for the help!  Cheers!

  • Qosmio F750 - touch buttons does not work after Windows update 10

    I use a laptop Qosmio F750 (PQF75A-02Y00Q).

    Installed on the computer the previous operating system was Windows 7 Home Premium 64-bit. Then, I upgraded the operating system to Windows 64-bit edition 10.

    As expected, this change would cause problems to appear. The thing that is really bothers me right now is that the touch of the keys in the top right of the keyboard do not work as expected.

    The buttons respond always if you touch them, but they do nothing on the screen. for the most part. When I touch the Volume Up / Volume keys down, they work as expected. However, the key Mute, the button Play/Pause, the Wifi key on / off and Mode (as well as the key to toshiba bulletin board) eco button do nothing.

    Curiously, when I manually turn eco mode from the power settings mode eco button again turns the green.

    My last question is, how can I fix this so that ALL keys work as expected?

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

    I noticed that the recognition facial webcam was funny things as well, but everything what needed to be done was to recalibrate the installation for that to make it work again.
    Curiously, all the FN key functions work well.

    In addition to the question in bold, there are all the other drivers should I install to improve/restore functionality to my laptop? As the page of Windows 8?

  • HP dv6-6c10us: HP dv6-6c10us Broadcom 802.11n wireless adapter does not work after windows 10 installed

    I have a laptop HP dv6-6c10us with a Broadcom 802.11n wireless adapter.  It worked fine on Win 7.  When I upgraded to win 10, it has stopped working.  The driver has not been updated since 06/02/13.

    Until the driver is updated by Broadcom or HP, this computer is now a desktop computer.

    Any suggestions on how to get the adapter wireless on Windows 10?

    I recommend you to go back and do a system restore to a point before started to install the automatic updates, and where worked the wireless.

    Then download this tool that stops updates to install automatically.

    https://support.Microsoft.com/en-us/KB/3073930

    Hide all of them and then install one by one until you find the one that is to destroy the wireless connection.

    When you have found the culprit just hide it again and it will not be installed.

    You can create a system restore point each time you install an update.

    Tedious, but you should get where you want to be.

  • Laptop HP - 15-r213ns: hotkeys (keys of wifi sound, brightness), does not work after windows update

    Hello

    I have a HP laptop - 15-r213ns (ENERGY STAR) with windows 8.1

    Last night, after an update of windows, the shortcut of the brightness (F2 and F3) volume (F7 and F8), wifi (F12) and keys all others have stopped working.  I can always change the brightness and volume using windows, but I can't do more using the keys.

    The function keys are working, as refresh F5 or F3 Browse. I noticed that before I had to press the FN key for this and now she does without the FN + Fx, so I guess that the update of windows must have changed something here.

    They used to work fine before the update. I reinstalled the display drivers (NVIDIA G-FORCE 820 - M) and looked for new drivers or update drivers using HP Support Assistant, but everything is up-to-date.

    I was looking for hot key factors in the page of HP drivers for my product but could not find any keyboard, drivers or software related shortcut keys.

    any suggestions?

    Thanks in advance,

    Marco

    Hi, Marco:

    The system of the event utility is supposed to get the Fn keys to work.

    Details:

    This package contains the HP System Event utility for the laptop models running a supported operating system. HP System Event Utility allows the special programming function keys.

    File name: sp70439.exe

    You can find this file in the Software - Solutions section of the driver for your model page.
