| | wifi in Windows 7 Hello all. I just bought a new laptop Acer 5740 with windows 7 yesterday. I installed the drivers from the Acer DVD given. I would like to know how to use wifi in Windows 7. Yesterday was the first day , using Win 7 , so totally dont know anything about it. In the lower taskbar I can see some connections (Airtel broadband , xxxxx Hotspot) , so does that mean it can recieve those ? But when am clicking on those to connect , it cannot giving an error message to troubleshoot. Another query , can i install XP on i5 procy ? Because am a XP fanboy , and would like to setup XP as my dualboot option. |

| | The inability to connect could be due to too weak a signal or having the wrong network security key. As for XP, you can definitely install it in a dual-boot scenario. Here's a tutorial: Dual Boot Installation with Windows 7 and XP Alternatively, if you want to run XP programs in Windows 7 (and have Windows 7 Professional, Enterprise, or Ultimate) you can download XP Mode for free: Download Windows XP Mode Cheers, Walker Windows Outreach Team |
