[QUOTE="dazpearce, post: 1634350, member: 341759"] the machine is a MacBook air1466 bootcamp wifi driver not working hi all this is my first post and I have to tell you im a mac novice, hopefully someone can help. I have a customers machine that has chinese windows home basic 7 sp1 64bit installed, he has bootcamp on the desktop, which has had the wifi driver run from the setup.exe, I have also tried to manually launching on broadcomwirelesswin7x64 exe in the drivers folder, normally and as administrator it goes through the install ok, but when I check device manager there is a yellow triangle next to Broadcom 802.11ac network adapter #2 not sure why its saying adapter 2, but there is a Bluetooth adapter above it which also has a yellow triangle and another above that which doesn't. I have tried to uninstall both, the top one uninstalls fine the one with the triangle stays there. in the programs list there are a couple of items that have the word Bluetooth amongst the Chinese, and have uninstalled them, but the Bluetooth driver in device manager persists, when I restart they both come back, not sure if the Bluetooth devices are relevant, but thought Id better mention it anyway. also I have tried two other Broadcom wifi drivers ver 5100578 ver 63022375 without success anyone have any advice? thanks [/QUOTE]
