    Hello,

    I would like to ask you guys who have Vista SP1 installed on your M1530. Do you have any issues with, "connection lmited with access" I have Linksys
    WRT54G wireless router. I never have this problem before.

    I did clean installed Vista SP1 with latest update from MS, but I still have the issues now and then. I have too boot into safe mode and remove Intel wireless from Device Managers, and the issue will go away for a while and come back.

    I also have System process (NT Kernel & System) spikes my CPU from time to time too. It will eventually freeze up my laptop, and I have to reboot it. I don't have problem with virus or spyware. I also run Office 2007 SP1, but I think it is irrelevant to my issue.

    Right now, I reinstall Vista again without SP1, and it seems the problems are going away. If you guys have the same issues like I have, Let me know how to fix it. I am hitting the wall right now.

    Thanks :confused:

    I have SP1 installed, and I've had NO issues at all...
    Try uninstalling the 4965 drivers, then download them again from dell...
    and let windows update do the SP1 install by itself... (remember to manually updat the UPEK drivers)

    tell me how it goes.

    Okay, I did installed SP1 by downloading the standalone from MS, but it shouldn't be relevent right? I did manually update UPEX too. The only concern for me is system process spikes from time to time when you reboot it.

    Anymore ideas?
