    Recently i fixed some malware issues with my computer, and after running malware bytes and rebooting, i could no longer see any access points from my card, and my LAn would not as well. In device manager, there are 2 listing for my broadcom 440x 10/100 Integrated Controller, Intel Proset wireless card, and my WAN miniport (IP). The extra entries appear complety identical except they have a "-" at the end. Also, these entries also have the yellow caution sign next to them. Apparently they are non working due to incomplete or damaged registry entries. I managed to fix the broadcom by uninstalling and reinstalling new drivers. This did not work with the Intel proset wireless and i could not find the drivers for the WAN miniport. I tried to just uninstall the extra entry but it refused saying it was essential for booting. I am at a loss now and any help would be greatly appreciated.
