Since the OS is already installed and drivers too you can try booting into safe mode. Tap the F8 key at the Dell splash screen and try installing them in safe mode. This may or may not work, and you might have to reinstall all over again.
Also you should boot into the Bios press the F2 key at the Dell splash screen and make sure that the wireless card is recognized by the bios. When I installed the drivers, I did not install them in any specific order. I see now that I should have done so. Maybe this is why the video is not consistenly working,, whereas it did before?
Is it becauses, certain components engage in a random order when the machine is booted? I went into the Bios and could not see anything relative to the wireless card, but I looked on the laptop that works and all of the screens are identical except that the Bios version is 2.
I have since then rebooted with the F8 key and do have wireless access. It seems to be hit or miss. Do you think that after I go through the reinstall process again, it will work properly?
Or do you think that there could be a problem with the hardware? I have also noted that when I get wireless internet activity, it sometimes gets disconnected. This only happens with this laptop. Strange there should be a section in the bios for the wireless adapter as well as the on board ether net NIC adapter. Browse Community. Windows General. Search instead for. Did you mean:.
