the looks doesn't appeal to me. beside the themes are there any enhanced features you notice that might lure people into using, oppose to just an updated theme (which everyone seems to be wow'ing about)?

go to intel website and get the windows vista driver. it should work. I was on 5112 and it was pretty good.

ohh you meant the network card? not wireless? I googled it once before, try going on the boardcom website, they should have it. But you will get an error if u have more than 1gig memory but there is a fix to it. Google will answer your question.

well, i did went to broadcom website and tried to install a newer version of the driver but the problem still exist. I can connect wirelessly without any problem but since my wireless router is at my girlfriend's apartment, I'm left with win XP when i'm at home. Well about the memory, I do have more than a gig and should that be the problem. I always thou the more the merrier . I dont mind googling about solving any problem but please, hope you can direct me. thanks.

It says the 440 broadcom doesnt work right now, but I think theres a fix to that. I tried googling but I couldnt find the site i went to before. I got it from a torrentsite. I can't say it here its against the rules.

You have very little or no chance of getting a HTTP download of Vista. I downloaded it via torrent and it only took a couple of hours.

No links to such things on this forum though.

I am still searching for that site i found. I think you have to manually install the 440x com driver. I will continue looking. I can't link anything here. Just go to any torrent sites and search vista 5219
