Unable to switch on Wireless Lan

Postby siknote » Mon Jan 18, 2010 4:42 pm

Hi all,
I'm new to the forum so please forgive me if this problem has been discussed before, i did search the forum but couldn't find anything relevant.
Well i have an Amilo 2727 which had Vista but i installed Windows 7 as a fresh install not an upgrade, everything installed fine except i can't turn on the wireless adapter as the Fn + F1 switch seems to have been disabled and i can't find another way of turning on the wireless adapter.
Very frustrating as everything else seems fine, a look on the fujitsu website says my laptop is not compatible with windows 7
maybe you guys could help and tell me different.
thanks and regards
Andi

Probably you didn't install Launch Manager?

You can download the 32bit Vista Launch Manager from here.
It should work with Win7 too, but these Launch Managers are home brewed by FTS and might behave strangely. So I can't tell you for sure.

On vista everything is wrong , even on windows 7. XP is gold. Everything works just fine on it. Think about that.
