Wireless PCI & Onboard Lan together?

[IceQB]

I had wireless 150n pci card on pc together with onboard lan working fine.
Moved card to new pc, same OS Win7. Now not working.
Placed card in old pc works fine.
Conflict with onboard lan?

How are you checking if it works/not?

Are you just checking the Device Manager for conflicts/errors?

My guess is that your routing table / configured IP addresses for the combination of onboard LAN + WiFi is just incorrect on the new PC.
Does the WiFi card work when you disable your onboard LAN?

Device Manager shows no confilcts.
Wireless app included shows it is off. Cannot change status to on/green mode.

Does Device Manager show the device?
Also, is the WiFi adapter enabled under Network Connections/Adapters?

Usually I would try to go without network card management software and just stick with the built-in ones from Windows.

Device Manager shows device.
WiFi adapter is enabled.
Installed now only with drivers.
Not picking up

Ok got adhoc network setup, can access pc from laptops now.
But pc wont pickup any wireless apn's.

Usually when you install the proprietary WiFi software, it overrides/disables the Windows' AP detection.
See if the problem goes away once you uninstall the software.

Not installed software included with card, only drivers.
Must also mention Device Manager shows card installed ok, MS Virtual Wifi ok, then there is a PCI Simple Communication Controller not with correct driver.

 

[Pada]

my guess would be that you did not install all the necessary drivers yet...

it could be that you did not install the motherboard drivers OR it could be missing WiFi card drivers.

The PCI Simple Communication Controller only shows up when installing the wireless card.
All MB drivers were installed ok & no issues before this.
Tried re-installing & updating driver from net to no avail for the PCI Simple Communication Controller.

OK, i got this PCI Simple Communication Controller fixed, seems was some intel driver that needed re-installing after wireless card inserted.
