    I have installed several WIFI cards in my P855-S5312. They have installed correctly and show up properly in Device Manager. The problem is that Wireless will not turn on. I have tried the fn-F12 to turn on the WIFI with no luck. Does anyone know how to force it on?

    Is wireless adapter option in the BIOS disabled? Also have you tried to reinstall like the hotkey software or OSD (on screen display) software? Sounds more like a software issue.

    Option not in the BIOS. It is fn-F12 combo. Tried installing installing latest hotkey software. No luck.
