I got an Acer Aspire L310 without a keyboard. Installed Vista Home Premium 64-bit and Intel Wireless 3945ABG. Unfortunately, I can't get the wireless to scan for wireless networks. When I click "Diagnose", I get the message "Wireless capability on this computer is turned off".
Any ideas how I can turn the wireless on without the original Acer keyboard? I probably need the Fn + F3 key combination.

This is a desktop and does not have this key combination on the keyboard. The FN + F3 combination to turn on wireless is found on our notebook keyboards and have a wireless network adapter isntalled from factory. The Acer Aspire L310 desktop did not initially ship with a wireless network adapter. If you installed a third party adapter, it may need to be enabled through the Device Manager and/or have the manufactures drivers installed for Windows Vista 64-bit if available.
