d-link dwa510

Hello bro, I'm new to this forum. I'm using vista ultimate64bit sp1 , thing is i updated my vista64bit fully. later on i came to know that my wireless adapter dwa510 was not working , when ever i try to connect , windows can't connect to following AP(access point). I tried updating my drivers to latest version successfully updated and several time uninstalled and reinstalled ,restarting so..no use.If go to "manage network adapters" there my Rj45 and this dwa510 adapter can be seen but always disabled position when ever i try enabling but it doesn't enable. In this regard i tried checking my wireless adapter by installing xp32 and vista64bit fresh install in both the cases adapter works great, i couldn't figure out what would be the problem.kindly help me to solve this issue.

Hi and welcome to vistaX

If this is a laptop there is usually a switch or key combination to "enable" wifi. does the computer work if you connect via ethernet?

We could also use your system specs

thanks
