I have a windows 8 Laptop (HP)

I was playing on my pc one day and when I got off and got back on the next morning. My wirless had a RED X. I tryed System Restoring and it kept changing back everytime I shutted down! I also tryed deleting the wireless thing in Device Manager and I checked for changes but it never found the drive. I dont know what to do and I really need some help.

Well, do you have access to another computer to download a driver? If so, go into device manager (were you deleted it) get model# and specifications, down load the driver on the working pc, then copy to a flash drive and install on dead laptop. Yes, if you do not have internet connection, your dead laptop will not "find" a new driver. Second way, plug laptop in using an Ethernet connection, it should find automatically.
