Hi. Try to check the steps as give below.

1. Check the ethernet port with other spare wire if you have to check if it is a wire problem or if it is itself your ethernet port.
2. Try to connect your ethernet port directly to the router to make sure ethernet port is working and there is no connectivity issue with the switch.
3. Try to check the System BIOS settings and see if it is not disabled from there.
4. Lastly download any free Live OS of Linux and boot your computer using it. See if the ethernet card is working or not.

Steps from 1-3 is for checking physical connectivity of the ethernet port and the last step is for checking OS issue. If network card do not work with Live OS as well, you can directly come to conclusion that its ethernet card that is not working properly and you need to get is repaired.
Cheers!

Welcome to Fixya

The backlight must have turned Off. Look at the F keys ( F1, F2 etc) that has picture of the LCD. Press Fn + the key that has the LCD picture to turn on the backlight. If nothing happens, try to use external monitor. If you see the display using the external monitor then the problem is the LCD already.

Welcome to Fixya

The wireless switch is located either on the side of the laptop or infront. You will see an embossed image of a wireless network which means that the switch is at the ON position. You can alse enable and disable the adapter by pressing the F key (F1, F2 etc) that has a picture of a tower that has a wireless signal together with Fn key. On my laptop its Fn + F8.

The following CAN be done with the system running...:

Almost all drives have a small access hole on the front cover.

Take a small paperclip, straighten it and insert it into the hole carefully and straight, pressing in carefully and firmly.

The drive should release and pop open slightly. open the drive the rest of the way by hand and see if the disk is stuck (if any inside).

Try closing the drive and operating it again by button. If it fails to open, the drive will need to be replaced. Check with the system manufacturer for a replacement drive and instruction for replacement or take it to an authorized repair center.

hi.. i dont think so if its the problem of the ur Notebook , the problem is in the yahoo messenger software.sometimes yahoo messenger is busy asks u to try later . so can u tell me what is the shown message when u want to sign in?
thanks ...

Try going into the BIOS of the laptop, usually by hitting the ThinkVantage button on startup, and checking the date and time settings to match those of your cellphones. Usually this happens when the date on the BIOS doesn't match the actual date.

You get this message if your Laptop (CMOS/configuration) Date is really outdated and wrong: check and change your Laptop Configuration setting for Date and Time. Also check your Windows Date/Time.
If the date/time you enter is not maintained properly, especially after you switch off the laptop, then you have a bad backup CMOS battery that needs to be replaced.

Hope it helps.

you need to install then restart the laptop after each install. If you have no wireless when it restarts you need to fully uninstall the drivers you just used. I know its a pain doing this, but its the only way you will be able to correctly install the drivers

to correctly identify the one you need to download click here Download Now (HTTP) and install this program.



your network controller with no drivers installed will be shown in red, if you have any of the other drivers still installed it may show up as different make , you need to make sure all drivers that you installed are removed ,then run the program.

lower your fire wall down to med. its to high. it blocking your enternet.

You have to take it apart and clean it. Remove all the screws from the bottom of the laptop. Be careful with the hinges of the screen. Remember to have silica paste to change the old one between the CPU and the cooler. And be careful on removing the old pasta from the CPU. You can damage the CPU is you manage it wrong.
Since is not a LED panel it is much safer to take it to a specialized workshop for the cleaning. It shouldn't cost too much.
If you have further questions or need further assistance, just leave a comment. Thank you for using FixYa. Cheers
