I have borrowed a Pavilion DM4 laptop (the Beats audio edition), with Windows 7, Intel(R) Centrino(R) Wireless-N 1030, and it behaves terribly:
when laptop boots, the keyboard function switch is lit white -- to show that it switched on -- but the adapter somehow thinks it is turned off. I have to (every time) use the keyboard switch to turn it off, and then on again.
Similar thing happens whenever the laptop goes to sleep through inactivity, or when I close the lid.
I think the adapter is managed by the Intel Pro/Wireless software, but can't be sure, and don't know how to check. I'm a newbie at Windows 7.
Can I fix this? How can I fix it?
Cheers,
Ben.
