Same problem. WIRELESS. No wireless icon on desk-top. Pressing Fn and F2 does nothing. Been to Fujitsu-Siemens site and down loaded chipset and wlan. Cant get wlan to go in and chipset has no effect.Could this problem be rooted in the harddrive set-up? In 'All Programs" Start-up comes up as empty. As I no nothing about computers is there any-one out there who can tell me why I cant simply unplug and go wireless ?Going nuts trying to figure it out!!!!!!

... Right click My Computer go to> properties> Hardware> Device Manager making sure the drivers are installed
... any yellow exclamation marks?

comes up as a NOT FOUND.. The driver ..according to fujitsu-siemens is the wlangemtekwmir1036 but when I try this nothing will load in. and the device manager says no driver is there. Am I doing something wrong? Sorry for being a pain but I really dont know one end of a computer from the other. Thanks for the help so far

... are you sure you have a wireless card in a slot?
... is it a pci card?
... you are not any help when it comes to divulging all the information... " Amilo series" ???
... ok which series?

Its the Amilo L7300 notebook and the wireless was working before I loaded windows xp home edition.The reason for the re-loading of xp was that when I first got this computer there were no less than THREE copies of it on the start up page and very little memory. I thought that by doing a re-load I could set it back to just one copy..which it now is. The wireless is embedded and only required the pressing of the Fn & F2 buttons to switch it on and off. Like I have said I have tried to load the wlan download from the F/S site but it just will not work. I have also tried their 'chipset' with the same result. Is the problem in the hard-drive settings?

Got the download unzipped but the install part is in a 'sys' file that windows cant open. Can you suggest a program that will open it? Thanks

... when the 3 files are extracted:
rt2500.cat

Rt2500.INF <<<... the last one has a "cog" on it thats the one to r/click option "install"

Ok, I have done that but I still cant unplug the ethernet cable and go wireless. How do I check that it loaded in ok?

... refer to #Response Number 1

"...pentathol makes you sing like a canary"
... got brain freeze

Oh its got wireless. It was working but then I noticed that on the start up page there were 3 Windows xp home editions which were using all my memory.. so I reloaded xp after clearing the others and since then no wireless. Anyway, I have tried to install FSC_NetworkVIARhineIIFastE...by going to winsetup windows network adaptor set and that says that the ethernet adapter is installed but not according to the device manager which is still saying NO DRIVERS .

Maybe I should try to find a download that will tell me how to re-format this computer back to its factory condition and start again. F-S want £46 for the disc and another £40+ for the driver disc. I did try to find a reformatting program but had no succeess. Being new to this as its own problems. Thanks for your patience

"...device manager which is still saying NO DRIVERS ..."
... in device manager @ ethernet adapter
... + update driver option "from a list or specific location" and point it to the extacted driver file[s] folder

Hi,
The mouse from my wireless mouse and keyboard set has stopped working and I need a replacement.
Does anyone know where I can get a replacement? Are other wireless mice compatible?
Cheers,

... start a different thread.

"...pentathol makes you sing like a canary"
... got brain freeze

Did that. Went to 'up-date driver' -install from list- browse, found drivers clicked on them, said ok -click next -ethernet controller search but said cannot install because cannot find software.

... ok ok had a look @ the extracted files and if you open the file "winsetup.exe" then the driver should install
Grrrr
"...pentathol makes you sing like a canary"
... got brain freeze

tried it. It says its gone in but I cant find it on the device manager--which still says theres no drivers. If you want to give up I wont blame you. Even my patience is now wearing thin!

... do you have xpsp2 ?
http://www.soft32.com/download_992....
... check... right click My Computer click "properties"
... it should be listed under system if you have it.
... I wo'nt be the one to give up
Grrrr
"...pentathol makes you sing like a canary"
... got brain freeze

No, but I will have very shortly. Thank you for not giving up on me. By the way I have every Bond movie and sodium p does leave a bad taste in the mouth and a cronic head-ache....a bit like this computer !

My device manager said I had xp home ed. Did your down load and it said that I had a later ed already. Rang guy who did that download and he tells me he installed xp -servis pack 3. Does this help or could this be the root of the problem?

... it gives me a dry throat.
... SP3 should of been displayed under system?
... there have been issues with it and I wo'nt install it,
... sometimes there is an order of installing drivers or they wo'nt install; but I hav'nt had this with XP myself.
... it may be a simple little problem that we have overlooked,
..."...can't see the tree's for the wood..."
... that link states "service pack two "
...it say's "WindowsXP-KB835935-SP2-ENU.exe"
... I clicked it and it say's download from Microsoft.com, odd I thought that you had to go through a validation scenario, did you?
... and they threw in SP3
... anyway sounds like it did'nt work!
... this other guy you rang are you related?
Grrrr
"...pentathol makes you sing like a canary"
... got brain freeze

Are we
related? Why? Do I have to strangle him? Yes, he's my nephew. Should I go ahead and download pack 2? I'm suprised you're still hanging on in there, Moneypenny

... no it wo'nt install as SP3's on, doubt if it'll make any difference by taking it Orff !
... just goes to show ... "if its working leave it alone"
... it looked as if he downloaded SP2 and said it was SP3
but that's not the case.... see if I can dig a deeper hole.
... have you tried to update the drivers "Yes connect to the internet" in device manager.
... trouble with mickeysoft not everything does whats it meant to.
... this is a trial program that might do the job, it might not
http://www.innovative-sol.com/drive...
... its worth a download try, might even work.
Grrrr
"...pentathol makes you sing like a canary"
... got brain freeze

Ok, I will try that. Oh, er..it was my mistake, the device manager DID say xp home ed but under-neath it also said service pack 3. Sorry.
An i.q of 167 and able to talk about anything from the workings of a combustion engine to the art of Dali ..and I still cant under-stand a computer !!!!

further info:
... Windows XP: SP2 should be installed WLAN-Switch at the notebook-case:
... Turn on the switch or press key-combination to make the WLAN-LED light.
...You eventually have to install PowerManager or LanchManager (from the Driver&Utility DVD)
update drivers:
http://www.amilo-forum.com/topic,23...
... Activate "Wireless Connections" Scan for Networks:
If possible use the client-application of the driver... If you haven't done it yet, update your driver. Also try the driver from the manifactor since these are often newer than the ones from the Fujitsu-Siemens-Computers
... Deactivate the MAC-filter (just for testing) at your router
Re-enter WEP/WPA-key. Be careful e.g. with I (tall i) and l (small L) - there doesn't appear an error with a wrong key, it just doesn't work.... Eventually deactivate the encryption.
... Update the firmware of your router, if the steps above didn't work.
... Phew !
Grrrr
"...pentathol makes you sing like a canary"
... got brain freeze

Ok, and do I get an interpreter with it? I had only just got on the Drivermax site where it as Import /Export drivers etc ..and that had me baffled ! But, I was trying to work out what drivers to export and then import..but chances are I would have made a complete hash of it. I think it may be best if I installed pack 3. The combination of Fn & F2 switches on the green light but with no driver it just aint gonna work......wheres my Walther PPK!

... let it scan your drive
... and you want to let it import drivers for wlan if poss
... hook-up the internet cable access to it
... I do'nt know how functional it will be on trial version, try to get it nearly right.
Grrrr
"...pentathol makes you sing like a canary"
... got brain freeze

No, it wont let me download P2. Time we both called it a night. Would it be ok to resume tomorrow? Right now my body is begining to sag and my brain....well, I dont know if thats still working or not. Again I thank you. Have a peaceful night

Tried the drivermax program again and even though it said that the realtekGbe &fe ethernet pci nic driver set up were installed the device manager said other-wise. It keeps telling me that the ethernet & pci drivers are not loaded (code 28) (?)

try this... right click My Computer click> properties> hardware> device manager> +realtekGbe &fe ethernet pci properties> driver> driver details
... and anything else Device Manager is saying is NOT there
... then post what you see same format as this thread below
#Response 4
... http://www.computing.net/answers/dr.........Ps ........do you have the PowerManager LanchManager Utility DVD ?........[just thought I'd ask]
Grrrr
"...pentathol makes you sing like a canary"
... got brain freeze

No dvd for power manager. Went to start>etc to device manager but cant see realtek just Ethernet controller in yellow and pci also yellow and when i click on them they say no drivers (code 28) What is this code 28?

Some years ago when I first tried computers I lost the audio driver on my Gateway note-book. I contacted a Gateway forum and one of the people there tried to help but failed. He ased my permission to take over my computer and I agreed. Next thing is my computer just seemed to go haywire with lights and flashing digits.... then the bloke comes back on and says try it now.. perfect! Cant you do something like that? He said he was on a normal computer

... what is code 28 ?:
http://www.google.co.uk/search?hl=e...
"...computer just seemed to go haywire with lights and flashing digits..."
... yes I'd like to give it a go; but not for at least 10 hours time there is a reason for this, I will let you know later [reason]
... meanwhile download this 1.14MB :
http://imageeasy.com/upload/out.php...
... when we are ready @10hrs time you'll need to send me some details via email later.
... it might be earlier than 10 hours [variable]
... later

Now you really have got me intrigued!!!! 18 hours...even I'm not that good! Anyway, enjoy .
Will try this latest link and let you know what happens later.
DONT over do things !

... we'll sort that out after 5 hours
Grrrr
"...pentathol makes you sing like a canary"
... got brain freeze

... as pointed out to you via email you need "Launch Manager" which seems to be machine specific
... during this thread I had downloaded
"FUJITSU SIEMENS AMILO DRIVERS & UTILITIES DVD" 2.64GB... "L7300" not listed handy DVD though
... there were other drivers for the keyboard to activate the launch keys etc
... the web site states these utilities are on your DVD which you do not have!
... this may help someone looking @ thread:
http://support.fujitsu-siemens.com/...
Grrrr
"...pentathol makes you sing like a canary"
... got brain freeze

Ok, did that and completed download. Restarted computer and all I got was a flashing screen and then a box saying SOFTWARE>HOTKEY\10 followed by normal browser page

... I thought that was going to be last resort after we tried something else
... try posting in this forum you might find the correct drivers:
