I've tried searching but didn't come up with anything conclusive. Heres my problem:
Last night at work, we have a wireless network there, I tried getting on and my computer said that it couldn't. I then Hit the diagnose why windows cannot find any networks and it said that that I "don't have a wireless network adapter installed and configured" The night before last it worked fine. I then went into the device manager and checked the network adapters and found the Microsoft 6to4 adapter had a little ! in a yellow triangle. Going into the properties of the adapter it says that "this device is not working because windows cannot load the drivers required for this device (code 31)" The NVIDIA nForce Networking Controller is running properly.
Would the 6to4 adapter cause the wireless not to work? Has anyone else had this problem and found the solution? I'm kinda at a loss because I'm not really that computer proficient. Sorry about the long post also, I tried to get as much info in as possible. If theres any other info needed let me know! Thanks- Mike

In the device manager you could try updating the drivers for the wireless device and see what that does for you, and is it a wireless card or part of the mother board i am not familiar with the system. Never heard of a 6 to 4 adapter. I just did a google search and it looks like it is a common problem just punch in MS 6 to 4 adapter and see the info you get

I don't now whether you updated your computer lately but when I updated mine recently there was a marvel_networking update 88E5052-PCI-E-ASF which i installed and it stopped my network functioning until i did a restore to just before this installation and its back and working again so it may be worth checking to see if you have done the same

I will do the search you describe. I have no idea what the 6 to 4 adapter is, but it is not installed properly on my desktop. But, as far as I can tell its unfortunate condition does not seem to matter. Here's read, but I didn't read it: http://msdn.microsoft.com/downloads/...ipv6/start.asp. I am too tired tonight, and it looks beyond me anyway.
