Fujitsu Siemens Launch Manager and Windows 7 – enable Wireless

Solution from http://miloszikic.blogspot.com/2010/07/fujitsu-siemens-amilo-launch-manager.html

For all of you that have Amilo laptops which don’t have Launch Manager available for new Win 7 here is simple solution to run your wireless again!
I spent quite a time until finally managed to enable this card. I thought that enabling card just in bios will do the trick but cards have to be enabled from inside os as well and since Launch Manager will not work in default installation this will not work.

And hopefully running Launch Manager in compatibility mode did the trick.
So steps are:

  1. go to fsc support page
  2. find your laptop and downlod launch manager for Windows XP
  3. extract it and then right click go to compatibility view and select run as “windows xp (service pack 2)” – didn’t work for me with service pack 3
  4. enable “run as administrator” as well
  5. install it and reboot
  6. Voila! Press your launch key and it should work.
