Wireless driver for Laptop

Fras · Mar 16, 2010

Hey I have a Fujitsu Siemens amilo pa3553 laptop. Recently I upgraded from vista to windows 7 in the process I managed to wipe some of the drivers for the function keys on the laptop I have managed to get most of them back now but am not sure how to reinstall the wireless driver. I went to the fujitsu site and downloaded the drivers for the wireless card but they were system files and am not quite sure about how to go about installing these.
Any help would be greatly appreciated!
Many Thanks
Fras

HI

In Device Manager are their any devices with a yellow ! mark, I know one is likely to be the WiFi card, but are there any others, if so please name them?

To manually install a device, if it lists in Device Manager as unknown or as say a Wifi device in your case but has a yellow ! mark, then open it by right click > Update Driver Software, then choose Browse my computer for driver software > (make sure the driver download is unzipped) locate the unzipped folder and highlight it then click next and follow the prompts and that should install the Wifi for you.

Alternate is to click Start > Devices and Printers then Add Device and wait a while for the scan to complete and if your Wifi hardware is found choose it and click Next and follow the prompts, a Video guide HERE

Use the steps in this thread. I wrote the steps for Windows XP, but the process is VERY similar with Windows 7. Basically, you have to 'point' the Hardware Wizard' to the file you downloaded from Fujitsu....
