    Hello,

    I am having this problem where my Intel Proset Wireless Adapter is unable to connect to the network. I have a Dell 700m laptop. When I try to repair the connection, it is giving me a blue screen with a message driver_corrupted_mmpool and I have to switch off the computer. I am unable to connect to any wireless absolutely. I was in these forums before thinking it might be an issue with virus and Geri helped me solve it. The system is clean now. What should I do to get back my wireless?

    Thanks.

    Go to Device Manager > uninstall the wifi adapter > reboot. Windows will auto-install the adapter and driver anew.

    Not working

    Hello,

    I tried doing as you suggested but it did not seem to work. I am still getting an exclamation on the Intel Proset Wireless Antenna symbol on system tray and when I am trying to repair the connection it is giving me the blue screen with Driver_corrupted_mmpool message.

    Please advise.

    0. uninstall Intel Pro set from add remove programs.
    1. go to the Dell site and download the Intel drivers for your adapter.
    2. do NOT use the Intel Pro set wifi connection manager.
    3. use the built in Windows wireless zero config service to manage wifi connections. (let Windows manage wifi)
