Chesto Posted June 1, 2008 Author Share Posted June 1, 2008 Just going to go away and try something for a bit. Will be back. Edit: suddenly thought that I hadn't tried to install the new drivers from the downloaded folder on desktop. Had tried, with no success. Again. double post Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bben46 Posted June 1, 2008 Share Posted June 1, 2008 Did you ever install that PCI driver we were talking about? That board is a PCI. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

bben46 Posted June 1, 2008 Share Posted June 1, 2008 I don't understand why this driver is not installing. Most wireless boxes have a wired connection also. have you tried that? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chesto Posted June 1, 2008 Author Share Posted June 1, 2008 This is a WLAN card attached - plugged into - inside the machine. Just the aerial, and an LED outside at the back. Have just tried the shortcut: ASUS WLAN Utilities, desktop, and get message: unable to connect to lan card. Tray icon will be loaded once card is inserted. Card is inserted, and reinserted.

bben46 Posted June 1, 2008 Share Posted June 1, 2008 That doesn't sound good. It sounds like it is waiting for a card, and when yours is plugged in it doesn't see it. That points to a bad board. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chesto Posted June 1, 2008 Author Share Posted June 1, 2008 Think you're right. No little green light comes on, next to the aerial. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

bben46 Posted June 1, 2008 Share Posted June 1, 2008 New idea, you might try the card in a different slot. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
