PCI Wifi adapter gone?

[frankthetank195]

I buolt a pc a couple days ago, and everything was working great. I booted up today and the PCI wifi adapter wasn't detected. The green status light on the card was also off. I tried rebooting, removing and replacing, but no change. I really don't want to RMA it. Troubleshooting ideas?

What is shown in the Computer Management/Device Manager ?

I got it working, but I have to pull it out and reseat it each time I boot which is a hassle.

hey frank tank--

it sounds like the wifi adapter is going into power saving mode and not reawakening.

Or: driver issue.

Model name and # of wifi adapter?

Driver version you are using? Oh: and OS and version? Mobo? More info might help with troubleshooting--unless you don't mind reseating it with each reboot. (Great, until the PCI adapter comes off the mobo--they are not built for multiple in/out cycles.)

Have you tried a different slot? That might help you..
