Old relic (retired and legacy) Pentium 4 dog. Wow no details at all. What switch, where? The HP special one for wifi? What OS, XP?? Windows XP the dead virus magnet PC?

The switch needs the HP driver to work. Use ethernet cable instead. If the full Wlan wifi driver is installed, from HP all that works.

Broadcom 802.11b/g Wireless LAN 54G HP has no support for this old PC MS has no support for XP or Vista. No OS stated by you at all. The card is so ask Broadcom for you driver. That the last resort.

• 26 Answers SOURCE: You have a number of options: 1. Make sure the wireless switch is in the 'on' position. This means that the switch is slid to the right.

If it is, and the light is blue, then the wireless is working just fine, you just need to connect to a wireless router. However, if the light remains orange. If you have Vista, go into the start menu and right click on 'Computer' (XP, right click on 'My Computer' on the desktop or where ever you stashed it) and click on 'Manage' in the drop down menu. After you do this, you will see a menu on the left, double click on Device Manager (6th item down). This will open another list of items.

You need to go to 'Network Adapters'. This drop list will tell you whether or not the wireless card is being detected. Should say something like 'Broadcam 802.11 b/g WLAN'. If you see that, the computer is detecting the wireless card and your wireless should be working (however, if it is detecting it and the wireless light is still orange, check the switch again, if it is switched on, then you are about to have a motherboard problem). If the wireless card is not being detected.

You either have a HDD, wireless card, or motherboard problem (more often than not it is the motherboard, and you would be hard pressed to find one cheap). If you want to simply try to replace the cheaper parts first and hope that works, start with the wireless card, then go into the HDD, after that, obviously, the motherboard. But I will tell you from experience, that it is more often than not, a defective motherboard. Posted on Apr 16, 2009. Manual Canon Es65 Camcorder here.
