    I have switched from vista to XP!

    I do not see any on-off switch for my internal wireless activation. The fonction key of the previous versions is not there anymore!

    The wifi activates and deactivates itself !! Or there is a key sequence i do that deactivates it.

    Can someone tell me how to controle it.

    Thanks,

    Pierre

    Try installing the software that controls your function keys.
    WI-FI should stay on after the wireless driver installation. If not, check network connections to see if the device is disabled. If so, right click it, and select enable.
