Wireless driver

Hello Everyone

Windows XP pro Sp2
X41 IBM Laptop

The wireless driver shows exclamation mark in the Device Manger only when
the power cable is unplugged from the machine. When the power cable is
plugged in and then you restart the machine, the driver is picked up and
installed. If you unplug the power cable from the machine and then restart
it, the driver shows the exclamation mark which renders the Wireless
unworkable.

I swapped the HD with another X41 machine and the problem remains the same.
Changed the power cable, this made no difference.

Any idea please ?

Thanks

Best
 
The wireless should have a configuration utility. Some cards allow you
to automatically disable the wireless when not plugged in.
 
Hello Best,

Thank you for using newsgroup!

From your post, I agree with Brian's opinion. Please first confirm if the
wireless card configuration utility has some configurations with this
wireless card.

Does the issue also happen on other different wireless cards on this
specific Windows XP client?

Thanks & Regards,

Ken Zhao
