I open Network Connection and I double click on Wireless Network Connection, then a little window opens that says Enabling... and then Enabled then it disappears (this process happens very fast, in about a second.) But when I go back to my Network folder, it still shows it as Disabled.
When I run a diagnosis, this is what I get:

Windows Network Diagnostics
Detects problems with network connectivity.
Package Version: 1.0
Publisher: Microsoft Windows
I've tried an old driver and that doesn't work. The newest driver doesn't help. The only antivirus software I use is Microsoft Security Essentials and I disabled the Real Time Protection and Windows Firewall and that doesn't seem to make a difference.
Any help is very much appreciated.
Thanks.
