Tim, Thanks for the manual...I didn't find where the wireless card is, but it must be in there somewhere...I'll keep looking

I recently had to send my 8890 back to sager to have some stuff fixed (new keyboard and sound ports)...anyway, when I got it back, my wireless did not work at all. It's not like the drivers aren't installed...it's like the system...

gsferrari, neither the spdif nor the infrared are on the back of the laptop...what port(s) are you talking about?

yep the screen was on. hehe, I can even see it in the day time Don't you see a blinking red light when IR port is on? Mine is really bright and kind of hard to miss when it is on.

yep...although I don't think amazing eyesight has anything to do with it... If you are in a dark room, just turn on the infrared port and look straight into it and the red light is clearly visible. Also, just curious, what do you...

one other thing...does anyone else have a problem with the headphone jack where when you plug it in all the way it is much quieter than when you have it in about half the way? It's strange because when I do this, the onboard speakers...

glad to help

I was getting an annoying "beep,beep,beep" clicking sound as well, but it happened through my speakers and my headphones both. Then one night I noticed that there was a little red light blinking through the infrared port...

I have an 8890, but I've found that I'm plugged in pretty much all the time...so batteries aren't an issue for me. But, before I got it, I was concerned about battery life and ran into this neat device, the PowerPad. ...
