    Hi all

    I have a dilemma! For some reason my wifi button turns off my backlight lcd, when I turn my wifi off, the lcd backlight come back on. Even a fresh install won't clear it up.

    Now when I start up the computer the wifi button to on. I don't even see the start up! Anybody know if anything I can do to remedy this? Thank!

    ok, here is another thing, when i start up my laptop with the wifi button off you don't even see the boot screen, but while it is booting, when I turn off my wifi, the backlight come back on. It is not the os, what can I do? I read something about lcd inverter, but it still works....

    Where is the problem? the wifi switch? I can't imagine using the computer without wifi.... What to do...
