Now I will not throw my credentials out there and say "I am smart and you are stupid so this should just work" but I will say this: I started tinkering with computers back when the only choice for a home pc was a Radio Shack TRS-80, Atari 400 or 800, Now I purchased a Dell Inspiron 15R, running Windows 7 64bit, 4 gigs of ram, 500gb hard drive, with an intel wirless adapter and I am lucky if I connect to anything. And that is with a cheap Airlink101 usb wireless adapter I found online for 12.00 USD. My 11 year old Dell laptop running WinXP easily connected to any wireless network even if it was 3 blocks away or further. This is truly not a MS issue, though one of their people should have explained it properly.

Manufacturers had no excuse whatsoever for not shipping complete, functional, tested drivers long before the official release date.

MS bent over backwards this time around by implementing a very long period during which the OS was code complete, and nothing in the core touched or altered for several months (the open beta.) Now, with consumers demanding the absolutely cheapest pc they get get their grimy fingers on, manufacturers are reluctant to even assign developers to code updated drivers until the OS code is RTM. When nic cards sold for $300, there was support in their drivers for every OS under the sun.

Keep in mind that the oem didn't install drivers by running through a setup process - everything on your new oem pc was slammed on to it via an image.ĭriver support for win7 64bit is poor - thats a manufacturer/consumer issue.

You do an update later, a new nic driver is installed based on the hardware id's of the device.ĭepending on how sloppy the oem was in hacking together a driver package, the result may or may not be a better driver. They support basic functionality, but not the entire feature set of the nic hardware. Sometimes, it's not even the correct driver, but works well enough for the oem to get units out the door. I think where most of you mouth breathers are having an issue is with cheap PC's sold right after win7 was released.Ī lot of manufacturers shipped nic drivers that were essentially incomplete. If your wireless nic driver isn't working properly, it's a fault in that driver, not in the virtual wifi driver. It's only present when a win7 compatible nic driver is installed that supports virtual wifi. The problem isn't MS - it's ignorant users.įor anyone else browsing these forums looking for an answer to issues with the virtual driver: this worked for me email if any problems nstockert420 THIS WILL WORK IF U FOLLOW EXACTLY if it does not reconze it on first time its okay just plug ethernet cord in right click on unknown device or how ever its listed, and once conected to internet go back to device manger right click and update. when ur done install ur downloaded file from previous download, if u dont have it u may be screwed. go to device manger and disable this device. when u restart it may say unknown network adapter or some like that in device manager. then disable and unistall wireless adater not lan, restart.

then unistall include sys directories its a check box before u accept uninstall. first go to your manufacter website and try to down load your current wireless adapter what ever it is, never mind the wifi mini port for now.

okay follow step by step cause lot of people trying to explain but forget some parts. I had same problem i have emachines e627 win7 premium64 bit but i think this is a win7 problem. Im just hoping that i will be no problem come up after the guarantee period! Jocc

But, the question is, what is good this driver for? Do we miss something? After all this I made a full update with HP original sw upgrade program, and 3 unknown bluetooth show up, without driver, i disabled them also after i could not updated manually, becouse i dont like to see yellow triangles everywhere. From that on it always want to come on, so i just disabled the driver, but í could install an ip printer and everything is just fine. With this in parallel came up first the miniport driver. printers), and before i started it freezes. When I tired to install a printer (I just went to Control panel. I could connect jump between networks, be connected to a modem to wifi a cable at a time, so We assumed that the wifi card is good. Bud t what we figured out with HP support guy, is the following: When you do a system reinstall it comes up with no wifi miniport driver. HI I also tired to reinstall the driver, it doesn't help.
