fucking wireless network doesn't work.. or the fucking laptop is broken or the card. but as soon as i plug the card in the lap stalls in win 2k it just stalls power on / off resets it.. in xp the screen goes gray and only sollution is power on / off again.. sometimes you can get as far as to install but won't finish it because of stalls.. safe mode etc doesn't help a bit.
yes there is integraded but can't get it to work eighter.. on the front of the lap is a on off switch and its off so.. bios is VERY limited can't ajust fuck all..
Take it back to the shop. I have the same problem as well, but I've got the pc world student warranty- collect, fix, deliver. Love it. I'm on my 3rd screen and 2nd hard drive
3Com cards are known to have some problems. A customer of mine bought 25 of them for his laptops. We had to swap them out for cheaper ones after we tried everything.
Can't remember what we swapped them for, wasn't US Robotics though
linksys ? were just as cheap as the usrobotics.. just remember usr cause i used them at uhm college/work last year and on college the teachers use usr cards to (just noticed that today but hell.. noticed the same network thingy on my teachers laptop ).
