Wireless Network Adapter

heathersonline

Hi Folks,

Hoping someone can help me out here. I have a Samsung NC10, with the Atheros AR5700EG wireless network adapter running my WLAN.

Since last night the Laptop will not connect to my modem, and when I go to the device properties, it tells me that "This device cannot find enough free resources that it can use (Code 12)". I've tried googling, but am not great with some of the tech talk, so I was hoping someone might have an idea what the issue could be, and provide a possible solution. I havent had any other issues, so would really like to repair rather than replace if possible!!

Thanks

Hi,

try uninstalling the Atheros AR5700EG wireless network adapter driver, reboot laptop and the driver should auto reinstall.

I uninstalled it and rebooted, but its looking for a cd to enable the install, can I save the install onto a usb stick and run it on the laptop? Obviously I cant connect to the internet!

Thanks

Of course you can, it doesn't make any difference where the setup file is stored.
