    Hello All,

    I got my laptop today, it's the 2nd laptop of same model since I got the same one for a friend before. I worked on many Z laptops before like Z520 and Z540 and all of them came with Network Switching utility to enable/disable Wi-Fi and Bluetooth like SmartWi or another software I liked more which I cant recall it's name but it appears like floating of the top of the screen.

    Is there a possibility to install these software on my system? Take in consideration that my system is 64-bits and runs Vista ultimate. I dont mind trying and giving you a feedback so kindly if someone has a link for those software please post it so I can give it a try.


    Thanks.

    Thanks Visioneer, I downloaded the file and installed it without any problem, This is exactly what I was looking for (The floating icons).


    Hello SPEEDwithJJ, Congrats for selling your Z, I installed the software you provided and it worked flawlessly however I liked the one Visioneer just mentioned above and used it.



    Thank you guys.
