| So, my new laptop finally arrived today. (in a 2 ft square box... wtf) and i formatted the ****er. installed all the drivers fine. even the ones for the wireless adapter.. but when i try to use it it says "Driver not installed" i thought maybe the drivers they gave me were faulty after sever attempts at reinstalling them so i used a usb stick to connect in an attempt to download the drivers from the net.. so i went to the device manager and it isnt there.. :S:S any suggestions on why it isnt showing? the wirless adapter is a: Intel® PRO/Wireless 802.11g cheers in advance. much love |

| Well by the sounds of it. It is the ethernet port that is causing the problem. The port sounds like it is not working - Are there any lights flashing????? on the port???

| What happens when you right click on that yellow ! and choose Update Driver? Say Install from a List and on the second page choose Do not Search, then select the Intel driver which you said above that you had installed.

| it installs the drivers aparently and then it still doesnt fix the issue. do you think it could be a hardware issue? |

| sounds like it. Perhaps the mini PCI card isn't inserted correctly. Is it accessible? Under a hatch underneath or possibly beneath the keyboard.
