Hi @Charleze,
Thank you for visiting the HP Forums! A great place where you can find solutions for your issues with help from the community!
I came across your post about the Notebook, and wanted to assist you! I have looked into your issue about your HP Pavilion g6 Notebook and issues with the Wireless being off.Thank you for the screenshot, it shows this is not a driver issue as both are installed and showing no complications. Here is a link to the troubleshooting the Wireless connection, if you need it.
Some say this download will help fix this problem Microsoft Fix it.
Here is a link to help as well.
