Default Wireless Select Switch Utility - error - 03-18-2009, 12:38 AM

Hi - I received my mini today and am having an issue with the wireless select switch utility. It says "bluetooth and wireless lan disabled" despite the fact that I'm connected via wireless right now. I've re-installed the utility per another thread's suggestion here to no avail. I have installed the cisco vpn client as well as Sprint smartview which is for my evdo modem; perhaps those are causing a conflict? I'm running XP and the only device manager error is something called "compal". Any ideas?

TIA

Compal is the OEM manufacturer of the Mini. There is a Compal driver floating around here in the forums that you may want to search for...

Using the command-line controls, you can make a bunch of batch files, then set keyboard shortcuts for them.
