Is it possible you only warm booted the laptop from a previous windows
boot? I've seen where windows won't let go of devices, try a cold boot.
Check your lspci for the hardware and search in the ubuntu forums, they
are extremely helpful. Check your logs for any messages that might be
related to the wireless nic.
