My wifi disappeared again. And then it froze. I've been having this issue for a while and got a BSOD before so I have an open thread over there. My computer always freezes after the wifi disappears and my laptop says no wifi is found. I've been having this issue for about two months now but it's getting worse.
Now I am wondering if you have all the data you want to keep because I am thinking of a reinstall now and you can do that by using the factory reset function. Now if that doesn't work I am inclined to think the machine has a hardware problem in view of the drivers having been installed yet the wifi is not coming to the party.
Just as a matter of interest did you remove the AVG and Norton as I suggested in the registry?
I wasn't able to when you told me because my laptop was in a computer shop. And Friday was my first time using it in a week. I will try what you said to do but I don't think there are any Norton or AVG leftovers.
I had a BSOD that said its a hardware issue so I rather send it back to have them figure it out along with suggestions. Another person on the BSOD thread said I should try plugging in the Ethernet cable and see if it freezes than. I remember I did that before successfully but still not sure because I didn't do it for a long period of time.
