Hi everyone, I'm trying to install the netbook remix on my EeePC. I've got as far as running the OS off the USB, but when I tried to test it out it didn't register wireless networks, & when I connected it by cable the computer froze & had to be restarted. Any thoughts? The current Windows 7 OS has no difficulties with either, & I don't want to do the final install until I'm sure it works, cos I can't re-install Windows if I do. Thanks for your help!

Which EeePC is it? I know my 701 4g has some problems with the UNR.

Just an advice rather than an answer:
If you love your current installation, (Win7 or whatever it is) you should keep a backup of the boot & installation partitions on a separate media such that you can restore them if & whenever needed.
I use Norton Ghost or PartImage (can't save mbr by default though) for that purpose. The simplest & guaranteed way is to clone the whole disk if possible as it also includes the MBR in the image.

It's an EeePC 1001 HA. Have you found one of the other versions works better on yours? Cheers.
