Hi,

I have a HP Pavilion dm3 laptop (U5400 processor). I'd like to be able to use a Belkin WIDI adapter to project form this laptop to a HDTV. Is there a way I can upgrade this to support WIDI?

Thanks.

I think you have the Atheros AR9285 wifi adapter, if it is your case, sorry, it is not widi compatible.

In order to use the widi technology, you must have one of the following wifi adapters:

Intel® Centrino® Wireless-N 1000, 1030
Intel® Centrino® Advanced-N 6200, 6205, or 6230
Intel® Centrino® Wireless-N + WiMAX 6150
Intel® Centrino® Advanced-N + WiMAX 6250
Intel® Centrino® Ultimate-N 6300

See the requirements here:

Can you please inform me if i can install WiDi on my ASUS N53Jf laptop, which specs are:

Intel Core i5 m460 @2.53 GHz

If i cannot install it is there any other way i can obtain it.

Your assistance will be greatly appreciated.

The widi softwatre setup abort abnormally, without any error dialogs, just a generic installer message at the end that say to close the Intel Widi application and restart with a compatible platform (translated from french). I ve checked and there are no Intel Widi or Intel Corporation folder.

It it is the same error as in this thread, but I dont get the first error messagebox:

I have a Samsung NP300E5A-A05CA with:

- Intel Core i3-2330M cpu

- Intel HD Graphics 3000

- Intel® Centrino® wireless adapter

- Windows 7 Home Premium 64 bits

I followed exactly the steps from this link:

http://www.intel.com/support/wireless/wtech/iwd/sb/CS-031109.htm

1- I installed the Intel® PROSet/Wireless Software and drivers (Wireless_14.2.0.10_s64.exe), working good, and I was able to run the My Wifi software
and use my laptop as a Wifi access point.

2- I installed the Intel® HD Graphics Driver (Win7Vista_64_152250.exe) without problems. The driver version in the hardware manager is 8.15.10.2509.

I rebooted at each step.

But I still not able to run the setup of Intel® Wireless Display software update (Setup2.1.42.0), I tried other versions, same problem...

I tried to reinstall Windows without any other software installed, same problem.

Could you help me please with this, I m almost sure it could run since the My Wifi software works, may be a zipped folder of the Widi software will fix this if it is just an installer issue.
