Most Laptops have a small slide switch on the outside edge of the computer to allow the wifi "card" to be turned off manually. Look on the edges of the laptop case for a small slide or button with the wireless icon on it.

In order for me to deal with this query for you, could you tell me what brand and model it is the Laptop?

the cause of your problem is that you have disable the device from device manager.
you should try uninstalling it and the re-installing, but you should only try this if you got the drivers with you (they might be on the cd that they gave you when you joined them).
SOURCE: Wireless Button Disabled
After one month of trying everything, I finally figured this one out. First turn off and restart your computer. Then press F10 to enter the System BIOS Settings. Select F9 (Setup Defaults) and when it asks Load Default Configuration Now? , Enter YES. Then, press F10 (Save and Exit) and when it asks Save Configuration Changes And Exit Now, Enter YES. This should restore the wireless LAN button to its original factory settings. Once you restart the computer the button will be listed as disabled, but press on the button and it should work again. I hope this helps someone else out!
SOURCE: DV4000 cant connect to wireless network
HP bought several motherboards from the same company in China. These boards work for about 15 months then they can't find the wireless card. This is caused by a defect in the North Bridge chip overheating over time. This chip is not replaceable at the local level. You can send it back to HP for a replacement and sometimes they will charge you $300 - $500, or you can just replace the motherboard yourself. Check with them first since there is an ungoing lawsuit regarding these boards. Either way the only fix is to replace the motherboard. This is also a problem for the dv6000 and the dv9000 models. HP knows that 30% of these will fail.
