You know, I noticed earlier that this is button is totally ineffective now. I use a usb stick thing for the wireless broadband but the button does not illuminate now. I tried the broadband cable earlier instead but this didn't help anything either.
Actually none of these 5 buttons now work (if that makes a difference to anything!)0 -

no I don't. Will any usb item do, my camera? The external hard drive didnt register although the green light was lit on it.
Crikey, another problem... I have just tried to open iTunes again and I have a message saying it has detected a problem with the audio configuration. I think its a lost cause....!0 -
do you have your recovery disk to re-install windows & drivers ??
according to the spec I posted, you should have an internal wifi card (the prism one), do you mean a mobile internet dongle rather than a usb wifi adapter ??......Gettin' There, Wherever There is......
