Thank you for the bios fix idea. I like the superglue on the wireless switch! I am going to use that one!
The workaround I used to reactivate the wireless permanently was to reimage the hard drive back to the original Windows 7 installation. I was then able to reactivate the wireless using the Windows 7 troubleshooting wizard along with the Fn-F5 key combination. Once the wireless was active, I reinstalled Ubuntu and everything is working fine. I agree that the condition will happen again under the right conditions. Though this is not a permanent fix on its own, gluing the switch in the ON position should prevent it from recurring.
