one final thing, upon installation do not install the software only the driver
and how you do that is buy downloading the driver then go to the device manager and install it via "update driver" then show it where the driver folder is. this means you use windows utility to manage your wireless not "atheros or intel crap utilities with much harder " it should be very easy.

Hey there, couldn't find the search button in this section so here i go...

Just bought a 2 years old MDG (MSI)ms-10342b laptop from a friend for cheap.

Thing is, he had to change the screen and used one from a 1 year old lappy with a failed motherboard. He installed everything just fine and it's running for like 3 weeks now,

but yesterday testing it i noticed a flickering of the screen every hour or so, a fraction of second.

Telling him the problem, he told me that he forgot to put a small magnet in there, and he gave it to me...

The question is... is there a particular location for this? he told me wherever i wanted... but this seems like a funny answer to me lol... what does that magnet do anyway near my data... lol.

so hay, thanxs for your time, truly i googled for an answer but all i could find is people wondering if they could erase their hdd with a magnet...

... what happens if i don't put it back in there... bad stuff i guess...

@breezier ..."i wonder if it has anything to do with the fact that my lid even closed doens't put the screen to sleep even if it is configured properly in windows"...

Your guess was rigth about the magnet's purpose. I had to change a broken screen of an MSI (MS-1412) and found that "small magnet" at about an inch to left from the cover latch mechanism. My first thought was, that if it's not for the display panel itself (which isn't), than it must be for holding the screws, at an eventual disassembly (which would've been too thoughtful), so i tested the magnet on the palmrest, near the latch hole and "bingo", Windows 7 goes into sleep mode... (this might be "a bit" late in your case..., but hopefully it'll help someone else's with similar issues... )
