WIFI disappeared after booting

[User_141812]

Tried : i have tried everything to do with bios like disabling secure boot, disabling ethernet , enabling network boot and also i have the working driver installed in it as it works it just happens after a reboot

it is not the first time happening it is happening for a month now i have changed my os 4 times from ubuntu to linux mint mate to linux mint cinnamon, right now i have linux mint mate with dual boot of ubuntu , the wifi was working for the past 15 days as i was not turning it off only but today the battery died and when i booted it the wifi and bluetooth was gone(wifi and bluetooth always goes out together)

conditions : If the wifi is working and then if you reboot the system wifi will be gone

it used to come back after i do something new in bios like last time i disabled the ethernet then booting brought back the wifi but now i just don't know what to do cause nothing is working i have tried enabling and disabling everything in BIOS setup but nothing work's

I have not updated the system after boot and any new install of whole system does not works as i have tried it ,it will just start randomly working

OS: Linux Mint 20.3 x86_64

Host: HP 250 G7 Notebook PC
