what operating system you have matters, but try this solution:
"
Go to HP wireless assistant, click on properties and there are some boxes which you can tick
The bottom box sais 'independent controls for wireless devices' make sure this box has a tick in it and click apply, then when you return to wireless assistant there should be a box that says 'turn on' click this and my wireless turned blue straight away.
