    The story so far….I got the Acer aspire 4315 from my sister and it was working fine but slow and full of useless programs. So I restored it using the alt-F10 method from the image on the hard drive. It booted fine but a program called “per system” booted up and was trying to configure the computer, I left it on all night and it had not found 1/16 programs. So I then reformatted the computer with Vista Ultimate Black Edition, which I like but I can’t seem to get the wireless Lan to work. I have downloaded the latest driver and I have double checked that they are the correct one. I have also been in to the administrative setting services and check the all programs are staring. Interestingly when I push the button to switch on the WLAN the laptop says enabled but the button does not flash like you would expect when it is connecting. I am all out of ideas!!!! Are there any amassing people out there who can help?

    Thanks in advance!!! :)

    Vista Ultimate Black Edition appears to be illegally modified and distributed copy of Windows Vista Ultimate. Any discussions even slightly related to illegal torrents, warez and any other pirated software are prohibited by the forum rules.

    Just so you know, you're problems are probably caused by this "modified" Vista.
