    hi all,

    have a couple of laptops and a few desktops in the house atm and i consider myself to ave a bit of knowledge having built all the desktops myself, but this is still a quite a noob question.

    one of the laptops is my brothers, a Dell Inspiron 6400. anyways, it came with vista and he asked me to put xp on it nstead. i ave put xp on my wn 2 laptops, one for djing one for general use, and both worked perfect. both are fujitsu siemens esprimos.

    to find all the drivers i need was a doddle, their website had a zip file cntaining all required.

    it was a bit more dodgy for the dell sstem, their site is ridiculously overcrowded with various drivers.

    anyways, i cant get the wifi on the dell laptop to turn on. as far as i can tell the drivers are installed. but im nt sure.

    im a nub when it comes to drivers on laptops.

    can somene please advise if its a wifi driver, or maybe a keyboard driver for the shortcut or something?!

    cheers folks

    Download the dell quickset utility and see if that fixes it.
