No wireless

Wow... I have the same problem I have a Linksys WMP54G wireless card installed on my Vista machine and it works. I had left a 200gb partion unused always meaning to install xp but I decided to try win 7 with 64bit since i have 4 gb of ram. And when I boot to vista it works fine but when I boot to win 7 I cannot even get a wireless connection to appear let alone connect. I installed drivers from the manufactuer CD but it still wont let me add a wireless conection. any 1 know what to do? Also for some reason when I use the CD that came with the wireless card in win 7 it runs but then nothing shows up yet when i hit alt + tab it shows a window open. When I installed the drivers I had to go through device manager then navigate to the drivers on the CD

On more laptops than I care to could I have asked owners wifi on they say it just goes on and when womeone happens to push a certain combination of keysw they are left tied to a wire. About my third question is what soft keys enables you wifi device. Most dells are function plus f2. A customer told me it had to be something else and took it geek squad where the then went funtion f4 and charged him $50 for throwing 2 switches.

Dell Inspiron 9300 with Intel WiFi 2915ABG and Windows 7 beta would not connect to secured WiFi networks using latest release of 12.x for Vista. Had to go back 2 versions to 11.5.1.2_VT dated 4/11/2008.

This driver supports 2200BG, 2915ABG, 3945ABG, 4965AGN.

I've tried a bunch of the drivers, and i couldn't get the wireless going. I have the 2914ABG Card and Windows 7 64 bit, do you know how I'd be able to get it going?

Intel® PRO/Wireless 2915ABG Network Connection - Intel® PRO/Wireless 2915ABG Network Connection support

it should be auto find and fix.

PS: plz fill in your SPECS as FULL as possible, the more you have the better if you need assistance.

Alright is all in any ideas?

when i tried that driver it will pop up, and crash it wont fully install or find the driver.

If you are using drivers from vista it won't work
They might work if you use Windows 7 drivers by downloading them on the internet.

So there's no way of getting around that ay, they only have vista, not windows 7 drivers. haha

hi, im new to this forum, im having trouble connecting to my BTHome hub through wireless. ive recently upgraded from windows XP to windows 7 32bit. Before upgrading, in the device manager window in the network adapters section, i had 3 different things. 1394 NET adapter, 802.11g PCI wireless network adapter and Realtek RTL8169/8110 family gigabit ethernet NIC. connecting to the internet through wireless worked at this point. Then after upgrading i went back into the device manager, network adapters, and out of the 3 things listed there in XP there is now only one thing listed there which is the Realtek RTL8169/8110 family gigabit ethernet NIC. ive been searching online for drivers etc for the 2 missing items listed but am having no luck, im guessing that if i have these two things back then i will be able to get connected to the internet ? can anyone help ?
