    System shows Intel BG Wireless with all updated drivers.  However, when I go to turn on wireless I get  message that Windows cannotconfigure the woreless connection. "If you want window to configure the wireless connection (yes, I do) start the wireless zero configuration service(WZC),  For info go to article 871122.  I do, it asks me if I want it fixed (click here).  I do and it proceeds to error out.

     

    How can I get WZC and have my laptop ---T41 Thinkpad with wireless 802.11B/G--- to see networks and use windows wireless configuration?

    Try this:

    1. Click Start and Run
    2. Type into the Run box "services.msc" (without the quotation).
    3. Scroll down and look for the service Wireless Zero Configuration

    Double Click on the Service

    4. Make sure that it is Started and that the startup type is set to automatic.  If it's not started, press Start

    Dear Kissimmee,

    Thank you for this suggestion.

    ME TOO,  THANKS VERY MUCH  Kissimmee!!!!   Lots of Hugs & Kisses too you!

    Used AVG Tune-Up Styler and Internet Security and somehow changed Verizon Hotspot management!  Darn it!
