    I recently bought a aspire one a110 zg5. There are a few issues with it however that I hope are simple fixes.

    Firstly the fan is making a loud whirring noise and the wireless card does not work.
    I see the previous owner of the machine has installed fan controll software and has followed a guide on this site to change the wireless card to an intel card 4965ang (top of my head).

    To fix the fan control issue I'm thinking that the bios needs to be flashed as I can't uninstall this hack.

    In device manager I see there is one conflicting driver "SM Bus Controller" and am guessing this is stopping the wireless working. I can connect to the router but on ipconfig I have media state disconnected. Finding it difficult to find the correct driver for this SM Bus Controller!

    Any help appreciated,
    Fact.
