So, after dealing with an FBI Lockscreen virus, amongst a few other ones, my nephew's computer was so out of sorts that I decided to do a clean install of Windows 7. During which I formatted the Harddrives before reinstalling. The installation itself worked near-flawlessly,and all of the drivers save for one was installed. The Wireless Adapter. The ethernet however, works fine. Normally, I would be able to open devmgmt.msc and just go get the driver from online, but in this case it isnt possible because the device does not show up under Network Devices, Other devices etc.
I've scoured the net looking for the appropriate drivers for it and only one of them seemingly works but turns right back off after about a minute or so, and when I try to diagnose, it tries to reset the wireless card, and it never turns back on, after which I am met with an Error Code (10) in devmgmt, so I am pretty much stumped. Any and all help is greatly appreciated! Specs listed below.
Model: Acer Aspire 5251-1005
2GB DDR3 Memory
AMD V120(2.2Ghz)
ATI Mobility Radeon HD 4250 Graphics (893 MB HyperMemory)
250 GB HDD
Win7 Ultimate Edition x64
Acer Nplify 802.11 b/g/n (Checked the WLAN Module. Broadcom BCM943225HM, tried searching for the driver this way to no avail)
