I'm having problems with a wireless driver. I open up the wireless LAN manager and click on Scan for networks. I can see my network but cannot connect. I'm running WEP and DHCP. Where do I set the key ? and connect?

[frenchge]

When using WEP or any encryption you will need to use the same key on both your pc and router. You can check online using Google to find where you need to set the key in the router.

you realise that installing it this way is stupid as you're just installing the liveos and not the full os and linux works best with ext2 or ext3, thought you had experience? sort it out

[frenchge]

Good point. However, most techs only use Linux as a tool to keep Windows running. That is why I install it to either a USB drive or bootable CD.

people dont do it to your c: drive unless you want to kill windows .

[frenchge]

Good point...you could install it to your primary drive and replace Windows.

I always warn my students ...Backup...Backup...Backup...

@frenchge I found it in the settings location. I found hidden file of picture of this customer that I would hope they thought were delete using SLAX. Ever seen a 70 year old in a banana hammock? It 's not pretty. Thank you for showing how easy it is to use!

i have slax on my 1gb usb it runs petty well it's modfied build

[frenchge]

I usually boot Slax from a USB flash drive or CD to fix Windows. It can also be run in a virtual machine or install on your hard drive to replace Windows as your primary operating system. Hope this helps.
