    Hi

    Can someone please tell me how to access the bios on the W3V?

    Has anyone played with any of the settings yet?

    Thanks in advance.

    Delete is USUALLY the way to get to the BIOS...however on ASUS machines, I think it is F2

    ASUS M6800Ne, P-M 1.5 Dothan, 512MB Ram, Toshiba Combo drive, Samsung Spinpoint M 40G HDD with 8M cache, Mobility Radeon 9700

    At first I couldn't figure out which button it was, so I just pressed ESC, F1, F2, and DEL all at the same time. LOL

    F2's been Asus' way into the bios on their laptops for a long time.

    Thanks,

    That's true....... I have a sweet navigation system and some times I even pretend I'm not using it so I seem like I know where I'm going, even when I don't.. It's just something about us.

    Thanks,

    Thanks for the info guys.

    I picked up my w3v when I was in germany so the german manual did not help me one bit.

    Now to try and setup my first wireless network..
