    Win7 64bit Home Permium How do I turn off the wireless adapter?


    Hi,
    I have a older Alienware Aurora PC which I always connected hard wired. Lately when start the PC the wireless icon comes up and says not connected and sits there for a minute or so, then the hardwired icon comes on.

    How do I turn this off? Device Manager>Network Adapters>Disable? If so which one?

All of the ones I've found so far, don't have drivers for the 64bit OS. Win7 doesn't even power up my old Belkin one.
