    ive got my v13 this morning. re-installed with win 7 pro but the wired LAN adapter doesnt work.

    checked at dell site, they dun have driver for wired LAN... they only have for wireless.

    recheck at the DVD given to me, and managed to find the driver for wired LAN.

    sadly when I install the driver, it doesnt work. basically windows doesnt find the hardware.

    note: before that i have already installed a few other drivers such as blue tooth and all working fine.

    so, I revert back to the original win 7 basic. and install one by one again... this time i didnt install the blue tooth driver first... and it works fine. The wired LAN adapter works fine. perhaps all the other drivers including the blue tooth working fine.

    and again, I revert to win 7 pro and followed the same procedure I did before this, so far so good, it works fine.

    I guess the blue tooth driver has caused this issue.

    finally arrived my v13, i'm from colombia and i ordered this product in december 28, more or less 1 month in to arrive..
    For suramerica the cost is more expensive, by the distance and the import tax, I bought the version with core 2 duo SU7300 and 4 gb RAM and the price was around 800 US
