Intel My WiFi - Adapter not found

Hi, I've got Viao VPCSA4C5E
I dont think thats revelant, but I've upgraded the HDD to SDD (haven't even used the laptop while it had HDD in it) 
I've used and followed the insturctions that came with Norton Ghost to do an excat copy of the HDD.
The laptop worked fine, however now the wirelesss adapter isn't working (the switch is switched on)
I have tried, disabling and then uinstiling the adapter, reinstaling wifi drivers, then I proceded with reinstaling all drivers, first time to newer versions, second time to orginal drivers that came with the lapop.

Device manager - device status 'This device is not working properly because Windows cannot load the drivers required for the device (Code 31)'

Any idea how this problem can be fixed?

EDIT
This problem has happend 3 times now, I dont really know how I've managed to fix it, I just kept uinstiling the device and reinstiling the drivers for about 2 hours.

Try to do a manual install on the drivers. Search for drivers available for your laptop model then install. It should work fine then. https://imagicon.info/cat/12-13/vmware_happy.gif

I suggest to to make a new image of HDD again, but make your research and use possibly the best app. I don't trust Norton at all.

I started using my orginal HDD, got the same problem.
Quick google search makes me belive that its a common problem with laptops, however I havent yet found a solution that would work.
