Satellite T110 - WLan connection has recently stopped working

I have a Toshiba Satellite T110 with Windows 7 Home Premium.
The wireless connection has recently stopped working, with the yellow exclamation mark showing over the device symbol.
On looking at the driver management screen, the following message is shown.
"This device is not working properly because Windows cannot load the drivers required for this device. (Code 31)"
Nothing I have tried seems to shake this error.
I tried the Toshiba assist diagnostic tool. It simply says the Wireless Connection failed its test.
I don't know how problem came about because the system worked for about three weeks without a hitch, but I would like to know if anyone else has any experience at solving this problem.
I could try a rebuild, but I'd prefer not to loose my OS.

Yes, I downloaded the driver, and re-installed it so it over wrote the existing driver and the WLAN came back and works OK, using it now.
THis issue was more complicated than I initially thought and I pass it on to help/warn others.
All my LAN connections were lost, while I was using a public open connection. I suspect a virus. I still have parts of the LAN hardware out, but not stuff I am currently using.
The Toshiba recovery options were in fact quite limited, without an ability to access all the dud drivers, other than each by hand. A painful process.
THanks for your help. Another 'gator sunk.

  • HT1695 My Iphone5 has recently stopped working on wi-fi at home and bluetooth in the car.  I am able to connect several other devices to my wi-fi at home and my Iphone will connect to other wi-fi alternatively to my home.

    Hi
    My Iphone 5 has recently stopped working on my home wi-fi and my car bluetooth.  The phone will connect to other wi-fi devices but nothing on the bluetooth at all.  Other devices are able to connect to the home wi-fi.
    I have reset network settings and reset all settings. Still it wont connect to the home wi-fi or my car.
    I have since taken my car in for it to be checked by the garage and am having the same problems in my courtesy car.
    Short of throwing the phone out of the window any suggestions how I can fix it?
    I'm thinking it'll have to be a factory restore

  • Iphoto has recently stopped working; it continually shows the loading circle. I’ve uninstalled and reinstalled it, updated it

    Iphoto has recently stopped working; it continually shows the loading circle. I’ve uninstalled and reinstalled it,updated it and reinstalled all my apps with the ‘applications install DVD’ however it still does not work. I have also tried holding the command and option key while pressing iphoto then when the pop up appears i press the checkboxes that have been suggested by other users however nothing happens. Any other suggestions would be great!

    Ok the program itself is likely fine, it's the files it depends on that are not.
    Step #1
    1: Open your Users/Library/Preferences folder (if on Lion you need to use the Go in Finder)
    2: Scroll down until you see a file called
    com.apple.iPhoto.plist
    3: Trash it and reboot, start iPhoto and see if it works.
    Step #2
    1: Go to your Users/Pictures/iPhoto Library and right (or hold option) click on it and "show package contents"
    2: Inside will be a folder with your originals, copy them out.
    3: Move and rename the iPhotoLibrary file outside of the Pictures folder.
    4: Reboot and restart iPhoto, check inside the Pictures folder if iPhotoLibrary was created.
    5: Download ClamXav and run a scan on the Original photo's and your whole machine too while your at it.
    (it's if there is a picture in there from Windows it could contain a corruption caused by malware)
    6: Reimport the originals back into iPhoto.
    See if those two steps resolve your issue, if not I could suspect next a network issue? Like iPhoto is trying to contact the internet and can't or gets hung?
    You can can create another user, use the Shared Drop box to transfer files and log into the other user and see if it's a issue with just your User account, and if so you might just want to transisition over and then one day delete the old user and it's problems.
    Please keep your Flash updated.

  • How do I get Firefox to work with JoyToKey? It has recently stopped working.

    I use a program called JoyToKey (http://www-en.jtksoft.net/) which allows me to use a gamepad (I use an Xbox 360 gamepad) to emulate mouse movements. I have a medical condition which makes it painful to use an actual mouse, so using a gamepad is the only way I can comfortably and quickly use an Internet browser. After Firefox recently updated to version 6.0.2, it no longer recognizes my gamepad joystick input. Whenever the Firefox window has focus, the cursor does not move when I move the joystick.
    I believe this is some kind of security measure to ensure that all actions are coming from the physical mouse and not from a malicious third party, because Windows has the same feature when the User Account Control dialog is activated - only the actual mouse will work with it, my controller will not. If it is a security measure then it is an appreciated effort, but, sadly, in my case it is actually more harmful than helpful. Any workarounds for this will be greatly welcomed. Thanks for your time.

    I can't help you with that software in particular but I suggest you to try Xpadder, I also have the microsoft xbox 360 gamepad and it works as far as I know

  • My FaceTime has also recently stopped working on both my Mac Book Pro and IPhone 4S

    My FaceTime has recently stopped working. I usually talk to my daughter but hadn't used it for a few weeks. I have tried to connect to my daughter in the last couple of days but without success. It rings and tries to connect but fails both on my Mac Book Pro and iPhone 4S. My daughter is able to connect to her friends but she cannot get through to me or I to her. Can anybody help?

    Yeah, I don't think that's necessarily all the issues here (re: iOS update). I have 7 devices that have stopped functioning within the last week and all of my devices have the latest iOS on them. I came to the forums to see what's available for help, but I'm guessing I'll need a trip to the local Genius Bar.

  • When my iPhone is connected (via the Lightning cable) to the usb port in my car, the alert tones are no longer played through the car speaker or the phone.  This previously worked, but has randomly stopped working, help!

    When my iPhone is connected (via the Lightning cable) to the usb port in my car, the alert tones are no longer played through the car speaker or the phone.  This previously worked, but has randomly stopped working. help!

    I took my iPhone to the Service center of M/s RSG INFOTECH PRIVATE LIMITED on April 17, 2014.
    Why are you posting in this forum about what occured with an independent service provider?  How is is at all relevant to Apple??  In fact, service by any person or business not authorized by Apple voids any waranty.

    Hi, my ipad mini has suddenly stopped working and I cannot turn it off or connect it to the computer, can anyone help me on this??

    Try this  - Reset the iPad by holding down on the Sleep and Home buttons at the same time for about 10-15 seconds until the Apple Logo appears - ignore the red slider - let go of the buttons. (This is equivalent to rebooting your computer.) No data/files will be erased. http://support.apple.com/kb/ht1430

    My phone has recently stopped sending iMessage even though it has wifi also it has stopped automatically sending it as an SMS when iMessage isn't working I have to manually get it to send as a text message. I haven't changed any settings. Any suggestions?

    Try the following:
    Go to Settings > Messages > iMessages > disable
    Go to Settings > General > Reset > Reset Network Settings
    let it do it's thing and reset.
    Then go to Settings > Messages > iMessages > enable
    You'll then have to go back to your Wifi and re-enter your router credentials.

  • Itunes has suddenly stops working when any player connected

    Itunes has always worked fine on my HP laptop running Vista. With no changes in configuration or software, Itunes has suddenly stopped working any time an Ipod, Nano, or Shuffle is attached. I have tried to reinstall all software, restart computer, checked devices for updates. Have also tried solutions published on Apple support page. Nothing works. Itunes starts and works fine until a device is connected, but then I get the message that the program has stopped working and needs to close. Occasionally the whole system crashes and I get a "blue screen" error.

    Just in case anyone else has this problem, the Tomcat certificate on the cluster had expired. Until you can schedule a change to resolve it, you can put the following in the regkey "ccmcipservervalidation" =0 and restart, it should then log in if it were the same issue.
