I am trying to download the WiFi driver for my Sony VAIO, Windows 7 laptop. Two drivers initially displayed in my Device Manager: Intel(R) WiFi Link 1000 BGN and the Marvell Yukon 88E8059 PCI-E Gigabit Ethernet Controller. They displayed but weren't running; both were flagged.
I UPDATED the drivers and that gave me this message: "The best driver software for your device is already installed. Windows has detemined the driver software for your device is up to date." But both drivers remained flagged.
Then I opened PROPERTIES and the Device Status read: "This device is not working properly because Windows cannot load the drivers required for this device. (Code 31)" I get that message for both driver adapters.
I could not find either of the two adpaters in the PROGRAMS of my Control Panel. Those two adapters being, one, the Intel(R) WiFi Link 1000 BGN, and two, the Marvell Yukon 88E8059 PCI-E Gigabit Ethernet Controller]. There were, however, programs in my Control Panel related to my WiFi. Those programs are:
SmartWi Connection Utility
WiFi-Manager SDK v5.9 Trial.
Intel(R) PROSet/Wireless WiFi Software.
Next, I right-clicked on the driver, Marvell Yukon 88E8059 PCI-E Gigabit Ethernet Controller. I right-clicked on PROPERTIES and found the DETAILS tab, then the Hardware Ids in the drop-down menu. In that drop-down menu, there were 4 "Values." I've listed them here:
1) PCI/VEN_11AB&DEV_4381&SUBSYS_9071104D&REV_11
2) PCI/VEN_11AB&DEV_4381&SUBSYS_9071104D
3) PCI/VEN_11AB&DEV_4381&CC_020000
4) PCI/VEN_11AB&DEV_4381&CC_0200
I performed the same task last night and got this list:
1) PCI\VEN_11AB&DEV_4381&&REV_11
2) PCI\VEN_11AB&DEV_4381
3) PCI\VEN_11AB&CC_020000
4) PCI\VEN_11AB&CC_0200
5) PCI\VEN_11AB
6) PCI\CC_020000
7) PCI\CC_0200
I did go to Marvell's site to find my driver. After inputting details specific to my computer and OS, I got this list:
