I hate computers.
No, really, I do.
We are playing with some new Wireless Access Points at work here. I have a wireless card (a Hawking HWC54G) and it didn’t seem to want to connect properly.
So I downloaded some new drivers. Which seemed to be missing some files.
Then I told Windows to use it’s wireless config tools instead of the Hawking software.
In any case, I totally horked the wireless drivers.
So I tried to reinstall them. It just hangs.
So I tried to uninstall them – nope, gives me a lame error message.
So, I boot in safe-mode and try to remove the card in the hardware mananger. Windows tells me that it can’t remove it as it is needed to boot the computer. WTF?
Hmm…
Finally I decide to try using a Restore Point. So I restore from a point on Tuesday, before I started all this crap. And wonder of wonders, it works. All is back to the way it was before I started.
But I still can’t connect to the Wireless…
