    Lenovo Wireless connection issues


    oh my, you guys arent going to believe this... I burned 7048 to a dvd disk, went out and bought an external CD drive, did a clean install of 7048 on my laptop... and NOTHING. Still doesn't detect the wireless.... This is awful...

    ... are there wireless driver packs I could download or anything and transfer them over to my lenovo? :'(

    Update

    okay, i did the troubleshooting, and it says

    "PCI serial port is not installed. install the latest driver for this device."

    .... how do I do this??

    Thank you for making this, Barman58....

    To give an update, the following are shown as problems:

    - PCI Serial Port doesnt have a driver
    - PCI Communications Controller doesnt have a driver
    - unknown device doesnt have a driver (the location for this is on Microsoft ACPI- Compilant Emedded Controller)

    You will find all your drivers here - look our for the Vista drivers, they will work.

    Solved:
    The drivers on Lenovo's site worked, but they were not obvious. Thanks to focher for pointing them out.

    Symptoms:
    Upon unpacking my new Lenovo X200 tablet (well, my daughter's new Lenovo X200 tablet) I copied the hard drive contents to an external drive and then loaded the 64-bit version of Windows 7 Build 7100. I formatted the primary partition and installed Win7 there.

    After installation some devices were not recognzed. I attached to my network via an Ethernet cable and was able to install some of the drivers by right-clicking and having Win7 search for them on the internet. However it was not able to find the drivers for three devices.

    • PCI Serial Port
    • PCI Simple Communications Controller
    • Network Controller

    Resolution:
    These problems were fixed by these drivers:

    PCI Serial Port
    Intel AMT X200s X200 Tablet
    Local Manageability Service and Serial Over LAN (Intel AMT 4.0) driver for Windows Vista, XP 05 Jan 2009
    v5.4.0.1074
    Filename = 7vr212ww

    PCI Simple Communications Controller
    Management Engine Interface (Intel AMT 4.0) Windows Vista, XP 12 May 2008
    v4.0.1.1074
    Filename = 7vr109ww

    Network Controller
    Intel Wireless LAN (11abgn, abg, bg) for Windows Vista - ThinkPad
    http://www-307.ibm.com/pc/support/site.wss/MIGR-70505.html
    Filename = 6hwv04ww

    I hope that this helps.
