    Acer Aspire 5590,

    Okay so I have two questions my first one is my wireless internet, I have a switch that has a yellow light showing that it's connected wirelessly, before I formatted my computer I could move the switch and it would say wireless off or on. What do I need to download or do to fix this?

    My second question is that I have bluetooth my bluetooth switch is beside my wireless, before it would glow blue, but now it does nothing and when I hit the switch bluetooth doesn't come on or off, and I installed the bluetooth driver for my laptop but it says bluetooth device not found when I hover over the icon in the right corner of my task bar.

    Thanks

    Do you have it running in the Task bar, then?

    It's supposed to be running, and also in the startup items, if you want it indicating, happened to me once and I was like, "oh."

    Also, does your volume buttons exhibit the same thing too, or does it pop-up the green text below your screen?
