Unable to Install Wireless Adapter (NIC or a USB) to Pavillion p6340a Win 7 Home Prem

I removed a working TP-Link network card from a Pavillion a1300a XP Home PC to put in my Pavillion p6340a Win 7 (64bit) Home Prem PC.
Downloaded and installed current drivers from TP-Link.
All installed well and the adaptor can be seen in under "Change Adapter Settings" in Network & Sharing Centre and shows as working properly under Device Manager but it is not recognised as a Network within Network & Sharing Centre.
Under "Manage Wireless Networks"" nothing is shown, if I then click Ädd" then Manually Create Network Profile"" I then get a very informative error message ""an unexpected error occurred".
Suspecting a problem with the NIC I deinstalled it and its drivers and tried to install a USB wireless adapter with the exact same outcome and error message. It appears there must be some OS problem or something stopping the wireless network from functioning. Both the NIC and USB adapter work fine when installed on the old Pavillion a1300a XP Home PC. Both NIC and the USB adapter have current Win7 drivers.
Any ideas as it is driving me mad. A simple 5 minute task on any other PC has turned into many.many hours with no solution.
This question was solved.

After many hours uninstalling re installing & trying everything under the sun in many forums, I finally found a solution. Despite trying with firewall disabled at different times the final fix was
uninstall the NIC and USB drivers and devices.
Next uninstall the AntiVirus (in this case AVG Internet Security)
reinstall the NIC and drivers
Reinstall AntiVirus
Tried the USB adapter as well whilst the antivirus was uninstalled and it installed no with problems as well.
All working fine.

Cannot do wireless printing to HP Photosmart C7180 since upgrading to Win 7 Home Premium 64-bit

     I recently upgraded one of my new HP p6150t Pavillion PCs from Vista Home Premium 64-bit to Windows 7 Home Premium 64-bit. Since then I have not been able to print to my networked printer, an HP Photosmart C7180 All-in-One, which is wireless on my home network. When this PC was Vista, I was able to print. Two other PCs on my home network, both running XP, can access the printer across the network and print. This PC now running Windows 7 64-bit can find the networked printer when I "Add-a-printer", and I am able to finish the installation of the printer.
     I downloaded and installed new drivers for the HP C7180 from the HP website specifically for Windows 7 64-bit, so I have the latest drivers. (The version of the drivers is 13.1.0, date is 10-2009. From the same HP printer driver download site, I also installed " HP Print Software Patch When Upgrading Vista to Windows 7".
     I do not want to install the printer as a shared device on any of the other PCs, but rather want to be able to print from any of them, direct wirelessly, even if the other PCs are offline. And I was able to do this when I used Vista...
     If I open and leave visible the print queue for the printer, and then print a Test Page, I see the print job briefly shown as "Spooling" and then as "Printing" in the print queue display, but nothing ever reachs the printer. There are no error messages, either during the process of Adding the Printer, or when sending Test Pages, or other print jobs to the printer.
     I have McAfee antivirus and Firewall installed on all of my PCs. The Firewall advanced setting for Networks shows that the IP address range for all of my IPs are trusted.
    [Although I just bought this PC from hp.com only 4 months ago, as part of a package of 2 PCs, a MediaSmart server, big hdtv monitor, and all with 4 year extended support agreements, HP provides "NO" support for network printing. That was what a support specialist called to tell me after I sent an email to the HP CEO. HP PCs, HP printer, HP provided upgrade kit for Windows 7, but if you want to actually print from your HP PC to your HP printer, there is "NO" support. (I worked for HP for ten years, but it is clearly a different company now.) So, if anyone in the Community can assist, I would very much appreciate it.]

I have a year old Epson and an HP.. I upgraded to a win 7 64 bit and doing some sharing/networking.. Got some 32 bit XPand two win 7 64 bit.. The Epson ,shares and connects up with no issues.. the HP is just a fiasco... No more HP for me ...

Hi:
According to the hardware ID you posted (USB\VID_0CF3&PID_311D&REV_0001), that decodes to an Atheros bluetooth radio.

E70- Unable to install Wireless Mail Express

I cannot install the Wireless Mail Express software on the E70. The error message that keeps on coming up is "installation of syncClient _symbian60.sis" not supported.
Please advise

Problem: If your application is not made for the Symbian 3rd Edition it will not work.
So if you've used the same sis file with an older phone it's not gonna work in the E70.

Unable to install Snow Leopard via disk or USB drive

I have a white MacBook bought in the summer of 2008. A few weeks ago, I attempted to install Snow Leopard and got a disk error (the one where it tells you to clean the disk and start again). I returned the disk, got a replacement, tried again and got the same message. At that point, I called Apple, and the person I talked to concluded that the problem was my optical drive rather than the disk. The optical drive was replaced a year ago under warranty, and it works fine with everything but Snow Leopard. Then I decided to try to install Snow Leopard from a USB drive instead. Everything worked fine until it was restoring Snow Leopard from the CD to the USB drive (I was doing this through Disk Utility), and I got the message Restore Failure Input/Output Error. I don't know if this means that the disk is screwed up after all or that this is a different version of the same problem with my optical drive. I'm really not sure where to go next. I don't need Snow Leopard, but I'd like to be able to update, and I'm not sure what my next step is. My MacBook is my only computer, and I am reluctant to leave it for several days to have the optical drive fixed yet again, if, in fact, that's the problem. Thanks in advance for any advice.

Understood that you don't want to leave your Mac for several days to have it fixed, but ultimately this is something you probably will need to do unless you are willing to buy an external optical drive.
The failure error message probably means the optical drive is defective, although there is some small chance you got two defective DVD's in a row. If you have an Apple Store in your area, take the MacBook & the DVD in & ask them to check both. They should be willing to help you install Snow Leopard by an alternate method even if your optical drive is the problem.

WIN 7 Home Prem 64-bit has crashed & burned. Need copy of original install disc. HELP!

I have a "Windows Error Recovery: Windows failed to start." error. And,the F8 page is asking for the "installation disc” to "repair your computer". How can I get a copy of the original Home Prem 64-bit to re-boot or restart my Satellite P770?
Thanks, jb

Satellite P770 (PSBY3U-04201N)
As you say, it's essentially the same as this one.
Satellite P770-BT4G22 (PSBY3U-02W01N), so the downloads here will work.
i guess this notebook is/was not a popular one since its not in this Toshiba support website
This situation is not uncommon. It's either a special order or from a big-box store.
Try a Startup Repair and a System Restore from the Windows Recovery Environment.
What are the system recovery options in Windows 7?
Let us know how it goes.

Unable to instal Win 8 on iMac with Bootcamp & Win 7. Help please.

You need to go to the computer maker and get a copy of the OEM for your system. YOu cannot download a non OEM and repair "it" with the OEM CD'S. The cd's are probably for repair not install. Does your system have a restore partition?

Not able installing internal Wireless Adapter on Tecra 8200

Dear all,
i've got a Tecra 8200
After installing WinXP Pro, the Wireless Adapter will only be found as PCMCIA MTD-0002.
I,m unable to install Drivers for the Adapter.
XP is with SP2
Bios is 1.60
Could anybody help me what to do, thanks in advance.

Hi,
if you have the Agere MiniPCI WLAN card installed, the system needs to install the following registry key with the driver for the WLAN card:
[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Servic es\Pcmcia\Parameters]
"IrqRouteToPciController"=dword:00000006
I've found an installation instruction:
1. Clean install Windows XP Service Pack 2 package
or Clean install the Windows XP Gold package and install Service Pack 2 update image on it.
2. Copy the TICardBusIrqRouting.reg to the system, then click the file on the system.
3. The following window will appear,
"Are you sure you want to add the information in xxxxx\DISABL~1.REG to the registry"
Then select "Yes".
xxxxx is the location of TICardBusIrqRouting.reg
4. The following window will appear,
"Information in xxxxx\DISABL~1.REG has been successfully entered into the registry."
Then click "OK".
xxxxx is the location of TICardBusIrqRouting.reg
5. Reboot the system
Good luck!
Bye

Hello mom_5_01,
The following article should be quite beneficial in your endeavor to update your iPad.
iPad: Unable to update or restore
http://support.apple.com/kb/HT4097
You may encounter the following symptoms while updating or restoring your iPad:
iPad continually restarts but never displays the Home screen.
An update or restore did not complete and the iPad is no longer recognized in iTunes.
iPad stops responding, showing the Apple logo with no progress bar or a stopped progress bar, for over ten minutes.
If this occurs, you can place iPad into recovery mode and attempt to restore again. If iTunes displayed an alert with an error code, see this article before attempting the steps outlined here.
Cheers,

Apple itunes installed network adapter and wiped my wireless out

On Windows Vista x64, I tried to take the update for itunes and it said it failed, to try download only (which has not been working either for me over past year; I always have to uninstall and go to the site to download/install it myself). But my internet stopped working 5 days ago (my wireless adapter inside laptop cannot find any networks ever; nor did my ethernet connection work to overcome this) and my first line of defense was to use sys restore; low and behold, there was an entry for the time period it stopped working that "apple network adapter installed" but no matter which restore point I tried to use anywhere around that event, it always came back with errors and stated no changes were made; still no internet either.
I have uninstalled the hardware thru device manager and tried to let windows reinstall it with drivers, but that doesn't fix it either. I even downloaded onto a flash drive the original driver that has since been updated by Intel for my Intel Link 5100 wireless adapter, but still it will not work. The ethernet did start working once I installed the old original driver for it, but even last night I got the error while plugged into my router "limited connectivity" meaning no internet. I then tried uninstalling all apple programs and kept being blocked from doing so (sounded viral to me so I ran norton power eraser, spoke with support, even used couple other programs for spyware malware bootkit/rootkit etc). Now I finally got all the programs uninstalled, cleaned the registry, and still I cannot get the wireless adapter to work.
I have spent days on this issue, seeing other discussions over the past few years where this has happened before (an update with apple's network adapter installs and wipes out the actual hardware adapter) but each time it only affects certain models of wireless/ethernet adapters. Guess this update got mine. I am trying NOT to have to restore my computer to factory condition as it is over 2 years old and that will mean millions of updates to all microsoft programs, drivers, etc.
Does anyone have any ideas that will fix this? I can send you my specs if you need them.
Sheila

Thx for the suggestion, but this is the post I originally found and figured out what went wrong, However, as I stated in my question post, I have not only uninstalled, scanned for hardware changes (w/o reboot) and rebooted and watched windows install device drivers for both lan & wifi, yet the wifi absolutely will not work now. I have the ethernet working since installing the old original driver, and today I was able to actually get back up to the last wifi driver from intel I had before itunes wiped it out. But still no wifi. My intel program and intel's system checker I used on their website states:
WIRELESS NETWORKING INFORMATION
Wireless Networking Product
Intel® WiFi Link 5100
Driver Version
13.4.0.9
Intel PROSet/Wireless Version
not detected
Software/Driver Status
Newer Driver Available
Latest version available
13.5.0
Hardware IDs
PCI\VEN_8086&DEV_4232&SUBSYS_12018086&REV_00
and I can't get the Newer driver to install without errors stating it will not work with my ACer setup. But at least I got from v12.0.0.73 today to the one above. I reinstalled Itunes today hoping that would fix anything I'd removed and the version was like 10.3.x.x.x. Then I uninstalled from device manager & rebooted hoping wifi network adapter would start working again, but alas, no..
Hope someone can help me soon, cause I've run out of ideas.

No wireless adapter after clean install

I have an X61 and did a clean install of Windows Vista Ultimate and now my internal wireless adapter card is not showing in my device manager. It worked before the install, so I know the hardware is there. What do I do?

Inside your device manager, do you have Yellow Question Marks next to other devices or any issues with your chipset drivers.
The WiFi adapter drivers are useless if the chipset that supports the socket, that supports the WiFi card are malfunctioning or missing.
Hopefully, you aren't being encumbered by user mode privileges and you've thoroughly executed the system in manager / Admin mode and experienced the same issues.
Don't just sit there, take a second and use the Kudo's button to compliment the people who help you.
