    I am unable to turn on my wireless capability. I just did a full reinstall of vista, any hints? I checked the driver.

    Make sure the wireless toggle in front of the notebook is switched on.
    Check the device manager to see if the device is working properly.
    Check that you have enabled your wireless adapter.
    Try Fn + F2 to see if you can enable the wireless adapter as well.

    Thank you very much didn't even see the switch in the front. Had the laptop for 3 days. so I didnt lose that much data when I did the reinstall plus I did the raid 0 setup.

    No problem :)
    Just in case you didn't know, setting your hard drives to raid-0 will not allow express gate to work, so don't be surprised if the quick launch key doesn't work ;)

    Don't really care for express gate anyway. Seting up for raid 0 seemed to be the cool thing to do on here. So I jumped on that train.
