    my win 7 laptop not seeing my wifi card will win 10?


    I am about to clean install win 10 on my Toshiba satellite laptop and I was wondering if the new OS will see my wireless adapter card that just recently my win 7 machine does not.
    Assuming the card is not kaput does anyone think it will ?

    Thank you

    It should show in Device Manager for your laptop, what chipset is used for the wifi card. If your laptop is an older model that did not originally come with Toshiba's OEM Windows 7. You have to install the driver yourself.
