    Hey i was just wondering if anyone could help me with this problem i am having with my C90s. Whenever i am using the computer when it is plugged in, the internet and everything works fine but the moment it switches from AC/normal power to Battery/saving power modes the computer freezes up and disconnects from the internet and i cant use any programs. Does anyone know what may be causing this?? I have XP installed atm. OR does anyone know how to prevent it from ever going into battery mode when i unplug it?? Thanks a lot!!

    It's a known issue for all C90S if you have 4965 wireless card installed, 3945 does not have this problem.

    You should be able to change it in your power4gear or in your power option settings.

    If your fast enough at boot and you set it to "Standard mode" in Turbo Gear, the card will work. Express cards also don't work in the C90s in battery mode.

    C90s really isn't a notebook for using away from an outlet.
