its ok i found it in the first link.
i do like it and i downloaded every app but that function didnt work still so i needed to manually install.
using software installer everything worked but ultranav, power off lcd, and access connections.
so far i have ultranav and power off lcd done.
access connections, when it worked couldnt change the powerstate, like a lot of other ppl posting. so im just sticking with windows wireless zero till someone figures it out.
i've reinstalled and updated to 4.0 with AC but still no go.

Regarding your Access Connections issue, try opening AC, clicking on Configure > Global Settings > and make sure the last two boxes in the list are checked.

thats the problem tho, i cant open it. its running in the background (shows up in processes list) but doesnt open.
its probably conflicting with a running service or something.

Re: Access Connections, when you have a problem like you describe, you need to uninstall the Wireless Adapter driver and Access Connections, reboot, then reinstall the Wireless Adapter driver, then reinstall Access Connections.

I do this but windows automatically installs my driver. dunno if im suppsoe to do it manually.
also, i use the powermanagement and after an horu or two it stops working.. something is definitely wrong here.
iv'e tried to uninstall all the apps, restart, install them again.

UPDATE:
i followed the instructions for uninstalling my driver off the ibm site. there was Intel sebring api to uninstall. THAAAAAAT was the problem, it was also adding 30 seconds to my startup time (no exaggeration). now access connections runs, opens, etc.
BUUUUUUUUUUT it cant turn on my wireless radio.
any ideas?
