    Wifi not detected or adapter on Laptop Windows 11

    I had the same issue fixing my son-in-law's Dell laptop with AMD. The laptop is only 2-3 years old, but on a fresh install of 11 24H2 using Rufus, it did not find the wifi adapter. I had to use a USB wifi to finish installing the drivers.

    Thanks for that. I'm also thinking that I may go with the Radeon RX 9070 XT instead of the NVIDIA since its comparable to the 5070 in performance but for less money. Not sure yet.

    I do have a Costco only 2 miles away, and a Best Buy. I know I could easily build it myself, but I don't want to deal with the build anymore. At 70 years of age, I rather op for something already build and ready to go.

    I've done this on several, but on some I had to disable updates and even disconnect from the internet. I was told to use PowerShell - Terminal Admin instead of command prompt.

    I installed iot on a spare laptop that I have, but I went back to 23H2. Reason: the Snipping Tool did not work for me. It has the icon and when I click on it, it appears to open but then nothing happens. I use that tool quite a bit.

    My 40 year old son who grew up playing with me on the original DOOMs and Quake games has it, but not installed yet. He has played all the DOOM tiles. He's currently involved in playing Clair Obscur: Expedition 33. My youngest daughter at 29 is a RPG player. Would not be interested in playing DOOM.
