    I have an Aspire 1640 laptop, since upgrading my Windows XP to Windows 7, as a clean install the wireless will not work.

    Help please! Thank you.

    Make sure you've installed Launch Manager.

    I can't install the launch manager because I have no internet connection.

    Download it on another computer and use a flash drive or simplu connect your computer via Ethernet wire.
