I looked at the specs, it does not say you have wireless. That said, you can look in Control Panel, Device Manager, Network Adapters, do you see a wireless adapter? If no, you can purchase a USB Network Adapter and install. The user guide should instruct you in the setup and use. Take a look at this, For Example: http://www.amazon.com/s?rh=n%3A13983791&ie=UTF8&psrk=usb+network+adapters

There is usually either a button or a slide switch that controls if the wifi is on or not. It is marked with an icon that looks like a tower with two curved bars coming out of each side. Be sure that switch is set to "on". Secondly, you will see a small icon in your system tray (bottom right hand side of your screen) that looks like two little computer monitors. You need to click on that and have it search for wireless networks. Once you find your wireless router simply click on that router and click connect.

If you're gonna format it using i.e a Windows XP-CD I guess you'll have to press C? H should be for booting to harddrive.

Reinstall software there was probably an updated version of the software you are currently using, this happens all of the time. Notification is null when it comes to these vendors.

Not that I know of ? Use the volume control manager in the start menu under accessories to make sure that all of the audio channels are turned on, and that it is setup for you configuration such as 2 speakers, 3 speakers and a sub woofer, ETC..., and not muted. If all else fails, go to the device manager buy right clicking my computer and selecting properties, and then go to the hardware tab. look for sound video and game controllers, if any of them have a yellow (!) by them they most likely need drivers. else, try uninstalling all of the audio ones, and restarting your machine. When it comes back up, follow the steps in the add new hardware wizard.

Did you try an older bios version to try and flash to that?

This is from European site.

I think in this case the second memory slot is under the keyboard.

The memory module is on the base of the laptop. It is the centre with the hard disk to its left and should be marked RAM at the side of it.

When you say play DVDs you mean watch DVD movies? Assuming the drive is not broken you need to use the DVD app. You could use VLC Player which you can download. It's an orange traffic cone icon.

Could be it has overheated and the NVidea chip is damaged. No idea why they are called laptops as to put them on a lap blocks the ventilation and they will overheat.
