X200t Wireless Radio

#1 Post by suzannetf » Fri Jan 18, 2013 9:30 am

I recently reloaded Windows 7 and all software/drivers on my computer recently. The reason was mainly just because I wanted a fresh start, but also that there was some kind of problem with my Bluetooth driver and anytime I tried to uninstall it files started deleting from my hard drive.

Everything is working great. But I've been having some trouble with my wireless radio.

Often, when I click the physical switch on/off just the bluetooth light appears when I turn it back on. My laptop does not believe that the wireless radio is on. Everything is fine in BIOS. I don't have anything set in the Power Manager that should affect it.

I was thinking it had to be something with drivers or something. Once I have it working, it stays on until I try to come back from a hibernate/sleep/shut down/restart. Sometimes it comes back fine, sometimes it doesn't. I couldn't figure out a pattern.

Finally last night I just flipped the physical switch back and forth about a million times (bluetooth on/off/on/off) until finally wireless came on.

Is that typical for the switch problems where only the wireless radio has problems? Thank you!
