    Can not enable wireless network card!!!


    The computer device manager shows that with the wireless network card is okay, and drivers and everything ok, but the network settings show that the wireless network card is disabled. Network card can not be enabled. I tried with several wireless network cards, nothing changes. The problem arose after the computer's motherboard replacement. Everything is working as before, except for a wireless network card. Where would be a problem in Windows 7?? The network card is a PCI Edimax EW-7128G. Maybe someone knows how to solve this problem?? Thank you.

    Laptops have hot key combo's to enable the wifi. Does yours? and if so have you tried it?

    I do not have a portable computer. I have a PC and a network card is a PCI slot.

    Try shutting down the machine, then unplug the machine and push the start button to bleed off extra juice, remove the wireless card from the machine. Reboot the machine then go into Device Manager and uninstall the drivers for the wireless card, shut down again, unplug the machine and push the start button again, reinstall the wireless card and reboot. Windows should see the card and reinstall drivers for it. Home this helps.

    The network card is detected and the Device Manager shows that everything ok. But under the network settings show that the card is disable. Importantly, that attempts by the various network cards, all the same problem, tried with a USB network card, just the same. The problem is Windows. But where exactly, I do not know. :)

    I tried already, and will build all sorts of different drivers, nothing changes.

    Changing mother boards often requires you to reinstall Windows for it to work correctly. You may also need to call Msoft to tell them that you changed motherboards if your using OEM copy.
