1810TZ - You Helped Get the W7 Pro Installed but where's the WiFi Adapters Go?

You helped me correct the install from Win 7 Home to Pro on my 1810TZ.
( Here)

Now the Network controller has the Yellow "Caution" icon.

And the WiFi adapter is not recognized in the Device Manager.
I downloaded the driver from Acer but I'm not sure what to do or where to run them from or in which order.

I called Acer support,. After a 40 minute wait to talk to India I was told that I voided my warranty by upgrading to Pro and they referred me to the Paid Support.

Also I ordered the Factory System Disks for $2x.xx. They sent me a "Language Disk".???? I was told to call back in two weeks and they may be available.

Are these folks for Real?

If you can help me I would appreciate it.
BTW, I installed the Win 7 Pro on my 1810T with No Problems. Is there any way I can copy all of the T's files to the TZ?

 

Install the driver then?

Try Here

 

Thank you, I saved the Zip file in Downloads folder.

I ran the s64 "dpinst64" app. file and then the iProDifX app.
I was required to run as Administrator, if that means anything. I did.
It installed " NETw5v64.sys" in Windows\System32\drivers\

Nothing changed after re-boot.

I found a directory " Windows.old\System32\driver\ with the file " netw5v64.sys" and tried to copy to the "Windows\System32\drivers\" directory.

Again, nothing changed after re-boot.

I've attached screen shots of each PC's Device Manager, with Network Adapter "Open". Maybe that will give a clue to what is going on.
On the TZ, the Network Adapter shows the version, (NDIS 6.20)

I'm lost again.

Are there any files that I can try to locate and compare

Devise Manager Screeen Shots:
1810TZ (Left) - 1810T (Right)

 

Yes!!!

I fixed it!

I found the right driver @ Intel ( Here)

There were two .exe files to choose from. The larger one's version matched the version on my 1810T's Properties.
I saved it and ran it. Then re-booted.

Anyway, I tried pressing the WiFi button on and off as the PC booted and it started flashing. It recognizes the network now.

Problem solved.

Thanks for your efforts

 

FRIG That was frustrating and you have saved tons of heartache here for that find!!!!~

 

Thank you. I want to be a Good forum member and contribute to the solution.
I felt obligated to post my results.
So many of you here have helped me.

I would be a slacker to not post and leave this "Thread Hangiing", so too speak.

If ya think I deserve it, how 'bout giving my "Reputation" a little Kick Start?

Thanks
