R52 Wireless problem etc....

[TPadguy]

After the latest update to a R52, I have the dreaded wireless problem, radio is turned off etc etc...

The main thing I am asking is how/why can't I completely uninstall the intel proset package? It either says it is unistalled or only part of it shows unistalled and it is no longer listed in Add/Remove programs...However, after reboot the wireless icon is still on the taskbar and the icon on the display panel is still lit....
Sometimes the wireless even still works too but sits there trying to get an ip address from DHCP. I have spent way too much time on this..Any ideas? I have seen the numerous methods for attempting this but I cannot even get anywhere without being able to uninstall the wireless software!

No One has experienced this issue?

Ive an R52 but I seldomly update. You may want to try repairing the installation by running proset/driver setup again. After that, run the proset/driver setup again to completely remove them.

Thanks, tried that several times with no luck at all...Appreciate the suggestion, though. Perhaps the key IS to seldom update!

Another idea is to delete all registry entries with the "PROSET" keyword. It's a good idea to backup the registry prior to performing this.

Although I'm not saying this will work and this will not damage your system so please do this at your own risk

Thanks for the suggestion, I will look into that. However, isn't there a vbs script out there somewhere that is supposed to delete all the offending entries automatically? I think I recall seeing something about this.

Thanks again...
