HP 250 G2 wifi problem

[sopik78]

Dear friends, I would to ask for help with strange problem.

HP 250 G2, MB OSAMU2_BT_HPC MV_MB_V1, blank screen with 2 blinks on caps lock. After reflashing BIOS laptop starts correctly, boots to win 10, but wifi doesn't turn on. Wifi button on keyboard lights orange. Wifi adapter correctly installed and changed for several other models, but still can't turn on. System reinstalled as well.

I don't understand why I can't turn on adapter when system can see it and has no conflict.

Any suggestion what to do?

Can happen when using a WiFi card not allowed by the BIOS (even after whitelist removal). If you cannot find a BIOS/WiFi card combination that works, you can mask the wireless disable signal pin (pin 20 on miniPCIe) on the card with some tape.

Many thanks to all.

Have tried 2 other bios dumps so far but with no succes.

Piernov - pin 20 really helped!

Did you try the keyboard command to activate wifi?

Had the same issue with an MSI 16F2 based unit
