Installed xp, but my wireless light is solid red. Can someone direct me to a driver for the wireless network adapter?

Thank you-

anu–
any ddr2 memory should work. i used the pny stuff from the black friday sale and it DID work. so upgrading to 2 gig of memory should not be difficult. yes. just find something online for the price your looking for, as for vista, i have no idea.. i removed that the first day, and went to ubuntu. didnt even make restore disks. vista is garbage. and in my humble opinion no service pack is going to fix it. you will be better served by getting rid of vista and putting xp or ubuntu on it. with either xp or ubuntu you wont even really need to upgrade the memory.. my wife has been using it for weeks now with ubuntu with no issues. its rock solid. if your not going to game with it (and i would suggest you dont, it doesnt have the video power for good gaming) then linux rules on this machine.
good luck

It’s going to be better to get two 1GB sticks of RAM for the C712US. Matched pairs always perform better than mis-matched RAM.

I was thinking about adding some ram to my laptop. I saw a single 2GB stick for close to the same price as 2 1GB sticks. I was wondering which would perform better. The laptop with the two 1GB sticks or a 2GB stick and 512 stick.
