Laptop reinstall help

[Bonfield]

Sorry for making another thread about the same problem, I have reinstalled windows on my laptop yet am still running into the same problem windows cannot find my wireless network, I think this is due to the driver problem.
It's strange although I never got Ubuntu to fully install but used the trial off of the cd, it found the wireless fine so i thought a complete install of windows would fix

The windows version I installed is one I downloaded from Harry

Anyone know what's going on?

[ShawnjohnSJ]

1) Do you see any other wireless networks?

2) Did you download the drivers for your wireless card from the manufacturers website?

No other wireless networks found, no option to join wireless either

What is your computer?
Samsung r439 da02th

[ShawnjohnSJ]

You need to download the drivers for your wireless card.

Whats the manufacturer name and model number on your wireless card and I'll get you a link to the drivers.

Download Driver Genius from TPB. It should fix your problem.

Make sure you install the right driver for the wireless card you have. There are 3 on that webpage.. you need the one for your specific laptop.

[wantonman]

should this be in the computer tut section? and check device manager to see if you need hardware installed...

[ShawnjohnSJ]

No, this isn't a tutorial. Also, his laptop already comes with an Integrated wireless card.

probably it's not really a tut more so me needing help, just strange why the driver was bundled with Ubuntu not windows

[ShawnjohnSJ]

Bonfield, right click on My Computer and click Properties. Then click on Device Manager.
Find your Wireless Adapter, right click on it and click Properties.

Then reply with the wireless card name at the top.

[wantonman]

the devs for ubuntu dont mess around... they intergrate the most common software driveres for your enjoyment... its like why doesnt windows come with a dvd player??? but yes yyou shouldnt have trouble fining a driver for it you just need to find what type of network card u got

[Bonfield]

Edit: I hope the photo isn't as big as it looks off of my iPhone

[ShawnjohnSJ]

Unfortunately not, can you right click the one that says "Network Controller" with the yellow symbol next to it, the click "Properties".

Then take a picture of that and upload it.

[ShawnjohnSJ]

By the way when taking a picture of your screen, just click the "Print Screen" button on your keyboard, then paste it into Paint.

Sorry paint made it unreadable

[ShawnjohnSJ]

Damn that doesn't help either. Do you have a IM program so I can help you quicker?

[ShawnjohnSJ]

Click Update Driver

You can try that.. but it most likely won't work because the drivers weren't found in the first place.

[Grihmm]

I changed my post. I guarantee that will work.

Any help to anyone? I got that with a program called unknown drivers

[ShawnjohnSJ]

As I said in my PM, download
http://org.downloadcenter.samsung.com/downloadfile/ContentsFile.aspx?CDSite=UNI_IN&CttFileID=3238841&CDCttType=DR&ModelType=N&ModelName=NP-R439I&VPath=DR/201009/20100907170901843/WLAN_Broadcom_Win7_5.60.350.21.zip

extract it, and run the setup file. And you'll be good to go!

[Grihmm]

Lol nice feet in background. Btw, don't feel discouraged. Drivers are difficult for everyone, experts to newbs. There are so many, and so scattered it is ridiculous to update them a lot of the time. That's why programs like Driver Genius are good.

btw may i ask how you found them?

[ShawnjohnSJ]

I went to Sumsung's website and searched for your PC.. then clicked the "Drivers" tab.

Give me a sec and I'll give you a link to your other problem.

[ShawnjohnSJ]

I'm not exactly sure which piece of hardware that is, but I think this driver will fix it.
