Cant start HP wireless assistant - HP Pavilion dv6775us Notebook

Bluetooth technology allows enabled devices to share information and data without having to rely on a wired connection.

To pair other Bluetooth devices with your HP Pavilion, you must first make the computer discoverable by turning on the Bluetooth antenna.

HP includes the wireless assistant to help you manage the various wireless features of your computer.

Click "Start" and type "wireless assistant" into the search box.
Click the "HP Wireless Assistant" entry in the list of results.


Locate the "Bluetooth" entry. Click the "Turn On" button in the "Bluetooth" category to enable the Bluetooth antenna in your HP Pavilion.

DOWNLOAD AND INSTALL HP WIRELESS ASSISTANT.

is hp utility turned n in ervices console

Is your wireless network working fine? If yes, it is better to close HP Wireless assistant program as windows has inbuilt program to detect the WIFI connections. You can type "msconfig", go to startup and close the required process. It should stop.

HP wireless assistant is a factory Shipped software. Try uninstalling it from Add/remore Programs ( Start > Run > Appwiz.cpl) and uninstall. Install it from Pc Help and Tools/Pc Tools under All Programs of Start menu using the Application recovery option. If No recovery partition, install from Hp.com using the Product Number of the Laptop

install drivers again & check.

Window Vista- Go To Control Panel, then go to Mobile PC, then Window Mobility Center, then go to the top right of the mobility center and click on Turn Wireless On

Go to HP folder where the installation was made, and try to start the assistant from there.

Anyways you don't need the asistant to see the status of your wireless connection.
To check it out just

Go to Start >> Control panel >> wireless connections >> and check your status there.
