Check to make sure your wireless card is enabled in the BIOS. hit f10 or the toggle switch @ startup. go to Devices in the BIOS and check to make sure both options for your wireless card are turned on. I had this issue with the tc1100 with the 2200bg intel wifi card.

Check Device Manager to see if the wireless card is working and enabled.
Then check the wireless card settings, has it been configured with the wireless router's SSID and encryptions settings etc.?
Check the wireless card's signal strength of the wireless router.
Are there other wireless routers in your area broadcasting on the same channel?

TC 1100 UNSUPPORTTED WIRELESS DEVICE

More information needed. Not sure if I can help you but others may be able to if more information. Is the device a

HP Compaq Tablet PC TC1100 - 10.4" - Pentium M 753 - Win XP Tablet PC 2005 - 512 MB RAM - 60 GB HDD see http://www.cnet.com/au/products/hp-compaq-tablet-pc-tc1100/specs/#p=hp-compaq-tablet-pc-tc1100/



if it is it should have a 802.11 wireless controller built into it and a rj45 ethernet connection.
Please explain what is on the other end do you have a wireless router to connect to ? Does this work with other devices or is this a new setup. Do you have a user manual does it have 802.11 built into it. Using other cards how are you using other cards are they usb devices plugged into the usb interface. They would need the correct driver installed and if the tablet has a wireless adapter built in they would conflict with each other . The windows xp running on the tablet would most likely be a special version that runs on tablets if it is a tablet.

Multimedia audio controllr driver

You can try a manual Microsoft Update and choose "Custom" rather than Express and once the scan is done check and see if there's an additional hardware update that points to your Audio/Multimedia hardware.

TC1100 onscreen keyboard.

Use a USB keyboard and do a system restore.
Use a USB keyboard to access HP.com and search for a download there.
Use a USB keyboard to backup, reformat, reinstall factory image.Takes longer, but probably best overall fix, HDD may have a few bad sectors and format will fix or avoid them. May be a great time for a 7200 RPM drive and some more RAM! 2Gb RAM and a high speed drive will breathe a bunch of life into a great tablet like the tc1100.
