erm hold onto "Fn" then press F5 should give you the wireless and bluetooth window. then you can on or off them. if still cannot just post another question.

well thats why we(everyone who join the forum) are here to help each other. maybe next time you can help me with my gf...LOL

the bluetooth should not affect your wireless connection.

i encounter something like this before. As our thinkpad already has a system called thinkvantage access connection that manages our wireless connection. then windows also got a system called wireless network connection. You only need one to work. i went around looking for solution.

You could disable the windows wirless network service, its called wireless zero configuration in XP. You can reach it by going start>run> type services.msc in the run box. Then scroll down to the wireless zero and stop it if its running and put it on manual, instead of automatic.

if you are running on vista, You could try going to the network and sharing center > click on manage wireless networks in the left column and delete the network that is there. Then thinkvantage should be able to regain control. there is an option to disable automatic connection under Manage Wireless Networks that should also work.

got it from a thread on forum.notebookreview.com. nice website learn alot from there.

hope i helped.

T61 is coming out...

A quick question for those using T40,T41,T42,T43 series,

Do you guy experience problems with ur USB port? It said something like the it can perform faster if it is plug into a faster port?

If you do, bring down your thinkpad for a motherboard replacement. There is no concrete solution for this yet. The problems will just keep coming back.

Common problem for T4x series for the early production. Newer board should already has this problem fixed.
