That is not a Microsoft error message. Indeed, it appears no one else on the Internet has ever encountered that exact message before. I find that unlikely. Please make sure you transcribe the *exact* error message. http://www.google.com/search?q=%22failure%20to%20join%20wifi%20network%22 http://www.bing.com/search?q="failure+to+join+wifi+network"; > I have update the driver through windows update > and it came back as latest available. Windows Update only offers drivers which the manufacturer has submitted to Microsoft and then passed Microsoft's certification program. The drivers on Windows Update are often far from current. > Maybe I should try the acer site directly. Yes. Also, if you are running manufacturer-provided "wireless utility" software, be sure to update that as well. >> What model laptop? What wireless chipset? > > The laptop is an intel i7 with 4gb ram. "intel i7" is the processor. You earlier said you have an Acer brand laptop. What is the model? For example, I have a model Latitude E6220 laptop made by Dell. What brand and model wireless chipset? For example, that same laptop has an Centrino 6205 wireless chipset made by Intel. -- Ben ~ Finally, powerful endpoint security that ISN'T a resource hog! ~ ~ <http://www.sunbeltsoftware.com/Business/VIPRE-Enterprise/> ~ --- To manage subscriptions click here: http://lyris.sunbelt-software.com/read/my_forums/ or send an email to [email protected] with the body: unsubscribe ntsysadmin
