Answer» Hi,
I recently started having problems with my Intel wifi adapter. When I turned on my computer the other day, instead of picking up the signals it usually does, I GOT a bubble in the task BAR saying "a physical wifi adapter is not installed"
In DEVICE MANAGER the adapter no longer shows up in the hardware list.
I've tried REBOOTING to no avail. Anything I can do to get it back online again?
It's a Dell Inspiron 600m running Windows XP. Had all the latest drivers installed before it went haywire too.Go into Safe Mode and check Device Manager there for the adapter. If you find anything uninstall it and reboot. Check Device Manager in regular windoze / if not there go into control panel / add/remove hardware and do a search for new hardware.
Could be too that the adapter just went south
