    It's not a switch problem I guess.

    Probably that the EU860D wasn't available in a Mk3. Panasonic switched to the Gobi2000, IIRC, on the Mk3. There is a diagram of switch positions on the board with the switches. Try those three combinations. If none work you're out of luck, IMO. :(

    I removed it, re-installed it, set the switches to wwan 1 and its now showing in the bios, maybe it wasnt seated properly, Ive now just got to find some drivers for it

    Thanks
