This is a laptop, correct? Hit the winlogokey+x. That should bring up windows mobility center. Mine has an on/off switch there. There is some stuff that HP put there on mine, but that doesn't appear to be one of them. I just found this myself and am curious if it is normal. I haven't wiped the HP install yet so don't know what the defaults are.
Not sure if this will help but usually you can enable radio with the Fn key and one of the F1, F2 and so on check your users manual. Hope this helps
Yes it is laptop, winlogkey and x is not working..., but for the radio I don't know how to enable it, but the Fn+F1 or F2 brings up help or system setings of connection... Still trying to find which one trigers radio :)
But I doubt that will work without switching wireless without Launch Manager
Thnx for helpthis far...
Have you checked the user guide as someone has mentioned? There might even be a hotkey utility that could be used to enabled the adapter, downloadable from the vendor's site.
Nothing worked this far...
Found this. Hope it can be of help.

Thnx for all try, I managed to fix the problem via msnconfig and start up... Now my wireless works... I'm so happy now
i have exactly the same problem that you had...
is there any chance you could go into more detail explaining what you did with msconfig to get wireless enabled please?
i've been searching for days

Hi, I have the very same problem. Pushing front button responsible for bringing up wireless doesn't work at all on Windows 7...
