    Hi, I recently got a S410 with no OS, but ive installed w7 on it with no other problems other than i can't connect to the internet using wireless, as after i enter the password for the network, i get a bsod saying "driver irql not less or equal"

    Help would be greatly appreciated!

    Seems like you installed a bad driver.

    Uninstall your current driver and try installing the lastest one from Intel, assuming you are using an Intel Wi-Fi card.

    I tried that and went to the actual lenovo website, but it still doesn't seem to work... its an atheros ar956x card, but I couldn't find the driver on the qualcomm site.
