OMG i cant thank you enough there MAXIE great top class thanks a bunch i have been looking over the internet for ages lol.wifi works great as u say 32 bit lol and im running 64bit.well another quik question wifi works great but when i connect up my Ethernet cable up to my pc directly and disconnect the wifi connection usually the computer works through the Ethernet connection but it dont do i need a driver for that and which one buddy thanks

 

[2009joseph]

would you have the drivers for connecting Ethernet directly to my laptop.wifi works great though withthat link u told me

Most welcome .. Looking at the Drivers from the Advent Website and the Specs ... There is nothing in the list for the Erthenet ... It could be built into the Chipset ..Run Windows Updates if that does not solve the problem .. Report back and i will see what i can do ..

 

[2009joseph]

will do i cant thank you enough tbh this is my buddys laptop and he asked could i fix it and i said i could so i hope i can now tbh this advent is a realy bad pc i got a toshiba one and its class

For your Lan Driver >>> JMicron PCI Express Gigabit Ethernet Adapter ...
