I have a lenovo laptop with vista business installed. I want to use the
thinkvantage access connections 4 which is designed for windows vista and I have used this software previously. The problem is that the thinkvantage software keeps telling me that currently windows wireless service is controlling the wireless networks and I dont want it to. I have tried stopping the WLan autoconfig in the services menu but this switches off the radio totally and it wont switch back on. In vista I used to be able to uncheck a box which then stopped windows trying to connect to the wireless networks. How do I stop the windows software? |
