Guys, how do I turn back on the wireless? I noticed to Fn+F2 keys but it doesn't work when I pressed them. Win 7 diagnostics showed that wireless is turn off but there wasn't any option to turn it on unlike in Vista

For those who want to install XP you can try changing the OnChip Sata Type to 'Native IDE' in bios.

-F2 at boot up to enter bios.
-Go to Advanced tab
-OnChip Sata Type: default is IDE -> AHCI, change it to Native IDE

Might work, haven't done it myself on this notebook but used it before on some motherboards where XP didn't recognise the sata controller.

Install ATKHOTKEY, ATKMEDIA, ATKOSD2 and WCONSOLE from the disk to get those Fn keys working.

ATKDvr Driver
ATK Hotkey
ATKGeneric Functions
ATKMEDIA
ATKOSD2 (Optional, if you want fancy OSD)
Wireless Console

oh and one more thing. Does this laptop has the hotkey function to disable the touchpad? Its quite annoying to keep accidently tap on it while typing assignments.  unsure.gif
Fn+F9 key to enable/disable the touchpad after you install all the ATK utilities

Have you installed all the ATK driver and utilities? ATKDvr Driver, ATK Hotkey, ATKGeneric Functions, ATKMEDIA, ATKOSD2. Probably need ELAN smart pad well.

In dGPU mode the laptop will only use 4570. PowerXpress, can switch between 3200 or 4570. So your laptop is working fine.
