i recently replaced my hardrive cause my old one went to hell, i reinstalled windows vista home premium 32 Bit, after trying to get online forever i found that the "Broadcom 802.11N network adapter Driver" wasnt working properly, i uninstalled and reinstalled the driver and it said that it was unsuccessful in reinstalling the driver, i looked on this forum and found a program called radarsync, downloaded it on my phone and transferred it to my computer and it didnt work...im basically lost, does anyone know how to fix this issue/know of the correct drivers/driver to download, attached are pictures of whats going on with it,

thanks in advance!!

This site has the driver downloads for that network adapter, i looked at the radarsync site and i think it would be better for you to use the broadcom site for your drivers, You have to find the right one for your computer tho. Post back if this helps you out .

im still not finding a darn thing, wouldnt this be so much easier if i had the restore disk with the drivers and utilities? and the really weird thing is that it says the drivers for these devices arent installed properly, if you click search for updated driver, it says that the best driver is already installed...

What had happened was, this laptops hardrive went out and i replaced it with a hardrive from an HP laptop that had windows 7 and different hardware, so it would make sence that some drivers would work because they're compatible but some wouldn't cause the hadware is different.

If i am looking at this correctly, the only drivers not working are the ones from your first post ? In other words, the install dvd you used did not have these drivers , but, had the others, and these are the only ones needing replaced ? In your device manager, are the rest of the drivers installed ?

So, looks like your options are to borrow a computer, get the drivers, set your computer to boot from a dvd , install the drivers that way. Enter your Bios and set it for dvd boot first once you have a dvd of drivers.

Great, can you share how you were able to do this, was it by using another computer and putting them on a dvd ?
