I am having this exact same as the thread found here Let me see if I can give more detail
My computer is HP tx1000 running Vista Business.
In the last 3 days when I put the computer in sleep mode, hibernate or even shut it down, upon reboot or awaken the Broadcom 4321AG 802.11a/b/g/draft-n Wi-Fi Adapter is not recognized by the plug and play wireless assistant. When looking at the device manager, it's not even on the list of hardware. I've fixed the problem a couple times by using system restore. this has worked in fixing the problem twice, but not worked once. the one time that it didn't work, I fixed the problem by updating the Windows Experience Index (there was some message about some hardware not being recognized).
When I checked the event log, I found this Error-
Source-PlugPlayManager
EventID-12
"The device 'Broadcom 4321AG 802.11a/b/g/draft-n Wi-Fi Adapter' (PCI\VEN_14E4&DEV_4328&SUBSYS_1366103C&Rev_03\4&236cf3b&0&0018) disappeared from the system without first being prepared for removal.
When I looked on Windows event site, it says "you can safely ignore this event" here. That doesn't make sense, because I obviously still can't get online.
suggestions???
