Help Please with Laptop

Right click on the my computer icon on your desktop and go into device manager, from there scroll down the hardware list until you find the wireless adapter. Once you've found it double click on it and try disabling it, then restart your pc again and see if it boots up. If it does I would repeat the process again but rather than disable it, uninstall it.

Then re-boot the pc again, and re-install the drivers when the found new hardware wizard pops up.

Otherwise it may just be easier to backup any data you'd like to keep, and format the hard drive and re-install windows.

Good work on isolating the prolem.
Joffa's suggestion is correct.

A big thank you to all those that offered assistance to help me fix my daughters laptop.
I have now corrected the problem by updating the drivers for the wireless. Seems to be working like a dream.
