    I just intalled a fresh copy of WinXp on my NB (Asus F3Ka) I did everything as supposed to, but the light that goes on when i start the wireless from the button in front of the nb doesnt work. Also when i try to youse FN+f2 i can only start/stop the bluetooth. Then the bluetooth is on the lights are running,but when it is off - total darkness

    What may be the problem ? Did I did something wrong?

    Regards From Bulgaria :)

    I'd suggest you to run ASUS utilities and drivers for keyboard.
    All these buttons are ASUS proprietary stuff - not MS

    To start your wireless using hotbuttons and get feedback from the lights, you need:
    1. ATK drivers, and ATK Hotkey.
    (Possibly also ATK Generic Function Utility in Vista.)
    2. Intel ProSet Wireless Driver

    To get the Fn+F2 to cycle btw/ WLAN and BT, you need the Wireless Console to be installed.
