Yes, I have the Intel WiFi Link 1000 BGN
My CPU is the U7300
I'm sorry for the confusion, my laptop does have the Vertex 60GB 1st generation (my desktop has the other one I mentioned, just got mixed up)
I am running Norton Internet Security 2011 (fully updated). I also saw that that report showed no anti-virus which I didn't understand.
I bought the laptop in December of '09.
As far as uninstalling the driver, I went into the device manager and found the wifi driver and uninstalled it (i also checked the box to delete the driver software.)
Since the crash was caused by that networking system file, I also went into the Windows folder, found that file and deleted it.
I have tried just about every iteration of my wifi driver and (i feel like I'm beating this into the ground) every time it either crashes or totally freezes.
One of the things I just tried was installing an open source driver which didn't work.
Do you know where to get actual Intel drivers, from their website? I tried and tried and couldn't find anything.
I did get that driver sweeper but I don't see where to use it for the wifi driver.
I have run the experience index, maybe not on this installation. What does that have to do with my problem though?
