Acpi wifi not working on vista

the ACPI wifi stopped working on my laptop and shows an error message. Wifi shows it being disabled. Any help on how to fix this? I have an OLD HP pavillion DVD6 with vista from 2007. My recovery also stopped working at the same time right after a windows update. Thanks in advance.

Hi @annaclarkrosen ,
Welcome to the HP Community! I hope that you enjoy your time posting with us.
I see that you are having some wireless issues with your older Pavilion. I will be happy to help you with this. What is the exact error message that you are going? What is the product number for your model? In your Device Manager what do you have listed under Network Adapters?
You can try the troubleshooting steps listed in this HP document Troubleshooting your Wireless Network and I have included a few generic wireless troubleshooting steps to try below:

Boot Camp Wifi Not Working; Windows Vista 32 Bit

Hey, alright, I got this huge problem. I installed Windows Vista 32-Bit edition on Boot Camp 2.0. I installed the drivers on my Leopard CD. For some reason I can connect to the net on the Leopard side (which I am using right now) and I just can't get a connection on the Windows side. So remember I did install the drivers on the Leopard disc. Also, when I go to device support on Vista, the drivers have yellow triangles beside them. I tried to hook the ethernet cable up and it still won't have an internet connection. I do have the Macbook Pro Aluminum model (newest one) so can someone please help me and tell me what I am doing wrong? Maybe you can tell me a driver I can download to get this working? Thanks!

Boot Camp will not support Vista on newer iMacs, you will need to upgrade to Windows 7. Also as an FYI there is a Boot Camp forum, you can locate it by clicking Apple Support Communities and then in the search field type Boot Camp.
Best of luck,
Roger

Itunes not working with Vista Home Premium 32-bit

Itumes 10.6.3 version will not work with Vista Home Premium. I have a 32-bit operating system. I'm not sure what to do next. It appears in trying to update it deleted the old itumes, as I can't find a copy of it when I search the computer.

Then I installed Quicktime on its own - still get the same error 'Quicktime has stopped working;
Okay. That will be the source of the iTunes problem. (Without a properly working QuickTime, iTunes won't work correctly.)
Checking on things that can cause QuickTime launch errors now.
Have you at any stage installed any Codec Packs, any copies of the programs QT Alternative, QT Lite or Storm Codec, or any media converter programs that can convert files into QuickTime readable formats?
(I'm checking on these things because depending on the versions of the programs/codec-packs, these can install earlier versions of QuickTime componentry on a PC, which can interfere with the running of a higher version of QuickTime.)

X-Fi Audio - Subwoofer NOT working in Vista 32-bit Ultimate!

<X-Fi Audio - Subwoofer NOT working in Vista 32-bit Ultimate!I I have WIndows Vista 32-bit Ultimate and Sound Blaster X-Fi Audio installed and with the factory drivers (I tried another set earlier and they did not work, so I reinstalled the original drivers which worked, at least partially). Until now I only listened to music using my headphones, but I tried today to plug-in my 5. Genius system (50W RMS) and everything works fine EXCEPT the subwoofer does not produce any sound at all!! The ONLY way to make it work is go to Control Panel -> Sound -> Speakers -> press Configure and then click the Test button in the dialog that appears (or click the subwoofer icon to make it produce a very nice bass sound - which I absolutely love, but it's the only way to make my subwoofer work!!!). Please guys, help me find out what the problem is. All help is much appreciated. Thank you!

Thank you my friend,I have done as you have mentioned (made sure the DLL did not stay there when I rebooted before I installed your version), and now I have the version which you have built. However, I am still unable to hear the subwoofer I am so sad... even my default on-board card supports the 5. just great, and I love the sound of that, but I was hoping for something better from Creative - instead, all I got was a soundcard I can only use with my headphones at the moment because of a faulty driver...
Did you enable Bass Redirection?
Run Console Launcher, click on Speakers and Headphone -> choose 5. Speakers.
Then click on Bass (Bass Management) and enable Bass Redirection.

How to fix iphone 4s wifi not working

How to fix wifi not working on iphone 4s after it is updated to ios 7 ?
Here is what fixed my wife's phone after several weeks of no wifi. We had removed the Sims card and transferred to another phone which was running ios 6. My son was visiting and said Apple had come out with an update a few days ago and he decided to attempt to install it on the 4s phone that had no wifi and no cellular because the sims card was removed. He tapped the icon to update the new ios version and received the message to the effect that No WiFi available would you like to search for available networks. He selected yes and immediately the wifi came on and has been working now for two days. Also we never installed the update to the new ios.
My advice is to remove your sims card like we did or trun off your cellular and attempt the update to see if you get the message to search for available networks and then of course choose yes. Go figure. Hope this works for you.

I purchased Photoshop CS5 for my windows vista operating system. I purchased a canon 7 D some yrs ago no problem. I purchased canon 7D mk 11 in December 2014. The supplied software will not work with vista. Photoshop CS5 will not accept canon7D mk11. Can someone please tell me how i process canon 7D mk11 photos ?????. (is it possible to bypass camera raw and open the photo straight into CS5 without using camera raw first. if so how do i do that. if not how do i process pictures).
Thank you.
Brian in the UK.

Photoshop by itself cannot process raw image data. That is why the Camera Raw plug-in was developed. You could try the DNG converter and convert your images to the DNG format and then the Camera Raw that you have would be able to open them. I can't recommend Lightroom because you are using Vista, and Lightroom 5 cannot be used with that operating system. It may be time for you to get a new computer and upgrade your software.

Hi,
What do you mean by the cd does not work in vista?
Can you tell us what happens when you try to install using the installation cd, error messages, etc?
Try plug in your Zen V Plus to your computer, does it get detected?

These articles will go through all the basic troubleshooting steps. Let me know if this helps resolve the issue at all.

Iphone 3G wifi not working after upgrade

Iphone 3G wifi not working after software upgrade, no proper fix from Apple. APPLE SUPPORT - R U SLEEPING.......

You are not talking to Apple. This is a user to user forum.
If you're using the iPhone 3G, there will be no fix for your problem. The software you have, 4.2.1, is the end of the line for the 3G. Apple is no longer providing software updates for the 3G.

Quick Install not working on Vista - how can I transfer pdb files to/from my Zire 31?

I have been using Hot Sync to transfer contacts, calendar etc, but am unable to transfer my database files (pdb format) to/from my Zire 31, as the QuickInstall program does not work with Vista, and I am not aware of any other method of transferring these files.
Can anyone help?

Oops, sorry for the bad link (the must have changed it). For some reason, I can't create a valid link to the article...grr. But you can also get to it by entering Solution ID # 43851 at the bottom of the Palm Knowledgebase.
To move the file from the card to your Zire's memory, use the Copy function in the main Menu. That is, insert the card. Open the menu from the main Launcher (home) screen. Select Copy, and you should be able to select the card as the source.
Hope that helps clarify. Let us know...

Network controller& USB controller driver not found and wifi not working

hello I Purchased HP 15-ac025TX (M9V00PA) Notebook laptop . i have installed all driver from HP site here is the link  http://support.hp.com/in-en/drivers/selfservice/HP-15-Notebook-PC-series/7771404/model/8326084#Z7_3054ICK0KGTE30AQO5O3KA30R1  but still netwok controller driver not found also wifi not working i installed blutooth drivers too . I am using window 7 sp1 (32 bit) For network controller device ID is PCI\VEN_14E4&DEV_4365&SUBSYS_804A103C&REV_01 secondly univeral serial bus driver(usb) controller not found i installed all drivers from above link also update windows but still no solution hardware id of usb controller is PCI\VEN_8086&DEV_9CB1@SUBSYS_80C2103C&REV_03  and last i am unable to download AMD/Intel Switchable High-Definition (HD) Graphics Driver. the download link not working KINDLY RESOLVE THE ISSUE THANK YOU

Update: While the driver I knew would work has not shown up yet, I did some detective work and explored some other broadcom wireless card driver folders from some HP links, and I found one that should work for you. While it says it is for HP desktop PC's, they put the exact same wireless card form factor in a desktop PC that they do in a notebook PC. I see no reason why this driver would not work, since the setup information file contains the same hardware ID that you posted. Here is a partial copy and paste of the driver setup information file and you can see the hardware ID you posted is supported by this driver.  x86 - Win7

Hi, i am not able to connect to the internet. wifi not working.

hi, i am not able to connect to the internet. wifi not working. not able to find proper drivers for 32 bit win.7 os. need urgent help..
This question was solved.
View Solution.

Hi:
I can give you the link to the wifi driver, if you do the following steps to post the hardware ID for the wireless card, so I can figure out what model wireless card the notebook has...
To find the hardware ID, go to the device manager and click on the device labeled Network Controller.
Then click on the Details tab at the top of the Network Controller window.
Now you see a Property drop down list and it is defaulted to Device Description.
Drop down on that list and select the second item (Hardware ID's).
Post the top string of characters you see in the window.

Hi Apple .

Now it become more worst sometime i unable to turn on my wifi .... pls email me for solution . I purchase my iphone from Apple Store online from malaysia but currently im working at oversea .

The iPhone warranty is not international. Apple will only honor the warranty in the country where the iPhone was sold.
If your WiFi connections button in Settings is greyed out, see http://support.apple.com/kb/TS1559 and if you want to Troubleshoot, and can access the router, http://support.apple.com/kb/TS1398 those may help but you probably need to have the iPhone tested by an Apple technician.
