    I have just swapped my AA0 to XP from linux as per the U3 key method listed in the How to section. No issues with the install expcet that the Wifi card now wont work. I flick the switch and the yelow light flashes but it will not stay on.

    If i check in the hardware list it shows as fully functioning and connected but it isnt. In addition I cant get the ethernet conection to work either??

    I assume i need to download some drivers (ever though they are all listed as working) but dont really know what to do at this point, and i dont particularly want to reinstall Linux.

    Any help would be great

    1.get the latest bios! install it
    2.atheros driver install it
    3.download atheros client utility! install it!

    (dont make any lan connection)
    first open your wireless connection! it will not detect any connection
    next run atheros client utility!! on actions tab click enable radio
    finally try switching the wifi knob!!
