    What a good question to ask. I'd like to think of myself as skilled, you know and I've had the same problem you do, sith wireless turn off in win 7 prior to installing win 8 and I have to say and apologise, that I, myself, found no other option than to reinstall win7 first and reactivate wireless before format and install of win 8.

    Hope someone else has a better answer for you though...

    no good, i wonder if there is a linux way of doing this... like booting to a linux live disc and enable it there...

    Also next week im replacing the wireless card in my computer, im putting in one of those new intel ac wireless cards...Wonder if that will kinda fix my issue.
