Acer Aspire One D255E Wireless Card Not Showing In Device Manager
Jan 25, 2013
HeI am at wits end here trying to figure out how to fix this pc. A friend came to me with the Acer Aspire One D255E with a wireless internet issue. The PC is Running Windows 7 Starter 32-bit. I immediately thought "well there must be a switch that she turned off" There is no switch on the computer for the wireless card. I thought "well there must be a driver issue, Ill go to the device manager and update the driver for it". Then when I got to the device manager... Nothing shows up for a wireless lan card even existing in the laptop, but I know it does, because A) It's a "net Book" B) she was using the internet last week. So, I thought maybe it's not showing up because thee computer needs the drivers for it first, which is unusual, but since its windows 7 starter I thought it needed a kick in the rear to get it goin. So i downloaded all the drivers for the PC using a different computer, and installed the different drivers to see which one would work. Well none of them worked, and now im sitting here scratching my head on what to do next. I have scoured the web and seen a few other people with issues like this.
I got this PC 3 weeks ago. For two days now Several of my devices have a Code 10 on start up. For instance my mouse in the Device Manager window has a code 10 and will not work until I use the trouble shooter and it re-installs the driver. I have tried updating the USB drivers as many recommend but there were no updates. I tried Microsoft's fix it, and it was not fixed.
I have a hp pavilion dv9700 running windows 7 home premium,and the atheros wireless device keeps disapearing out of the device manager and stops working sometimes it works again if i reboot ,i have tried a replacement but the same happens.
I had vista once I switch to windows 7 my hp deskjet f4100 series printer the operationg system won't run and the system no longer have printer physically showing in hardware
My Acer Aspire 5820tz laptop will not work. The keyboard does not respond. The laptop sometimes goes to the Boot Manager when turned on, the boot manager flickers and is uncontrollable. Other times it gives off a loud violent beep sound. Once it went to login but the keyboard would not work so i could not login.
Yesterday I got my friend to download windows 7 on my mac via bootcamp. I got it back today and I tried my wireless at home but didn't work. So I tried LAN line as well, which didn't work either. I went through few sites, they all told me to go on device manager and update my drives. The problem is that i can't find either modem or network adapter on my device manager.
device manager showing coprocessor without drivers cant find what its supposed to be updates won;t install downloaded all relevant drivers from asrock and nvidia but still no luck .anyone any ideas what this could be?
I recently upgraded my friends netbook from Windows 7 Starter 32 Bit to Windows 7 Ultimate 32 BitBefore the upgrade it could connect to the internet wired and wireless, Now it can't connect even if i plug in the Ethernet cable to it. I checked on the netbook and it says that it doesn't have any Ethernet Controller or Network Adapter installed
I can hear very well and clearly on a skype call but the other end does not hear me. when i go to audio it says that there is no audio device installed. there is no option of microphone systems on the pull down menu it indicates NONE
I used to run XP before switching over and have never ran vista. The XP drivers for this device worked great from the Acer website. I have downloaded the Vista drivers now and tried them both in regular mode and then after again in compatibility mode (Vista SP1). This did not work. It is recognizing my card reader but the driver's or something is stopping it from working.
When I load in an SD card the sound is not made and no drive appears. Am I missing something? I have google'd and gotten all my other devices to work flawlessly. This is the last one and I will have a working Windows 7 machine.
Edit: I have found out a manual for my lapop and it shows the device as "ENE CB714". Scouring google for drivers but haven't seen a thing yet.
Specs: 3gb ddr2 Amd athlon 2650e 1.60ghz Ati x1200
I installed the realtek audio drivers for windows vista from the Acer website,ran them in compatibility mode and still Windows won't detect it. There are also no audio devices shown in the device manager.
