Lenovo laptop usually have wireless switch located either at the front of the laptop or at the side. All you need to do is to slide the switch to turn off/on the wireless adapter. You may also use function key to enable/disable the wireless adapter. Press Fn + Esc key to enable and disable wireless capability.
The Function keys serve various functions for various programs and with laptops, in combination with the Fn key, the function keys have additional functionality such as increasing or decreasing illumination of the screen, mute on/off, touchpad lock/unlock, switch from external to internal monitor and so on. These special functions are labeled onto the keys themselves. Here's a short list of what function keys do in various programs:
F1=Help F2=Rename Desktop Icon F3=Find F4=Address Bar Autocomplete F5=Refresh(on a webpage) F6=Move cursor in structure (Address-Tool-Web) F7=Caret Browsing F8=Enter Safe Mode (while booting) F9=Update selected text (MS Word) F10=Menu Bar (MS Word) F11=Full Screen F12=Developer Tools
For a more detailed list of functions, take a look at this website http://www.computerhope.com/issues/ch000306.htm
There is usually a switch that turns on the wireless card. My Toshiba's switch is a slide switch on the front. Some computers have push button wireless switches at the top of the keyboard. If you still have your manual, refer to it for the location. Look carefully, and you should find it. If you don't have any luck, take it into Best Buy or a computer repair shop, and they can show you where it is.
The user manual for that model 3000-c200-8922 is here http://www.retrevo.com/support/Lenovo-C200-Laptops-manual/id/615dj197/t/2/
I have seen these instructions for Lenovo laptops - specifically that the laptop needs to be off when connected and then booted to enable the S-Video - no details available on the IBM site I can find
Make sure the laptop is off
connect S-Video lead to your tv
switch the TV to you S-Video AV input
Switch onlaptop
Now press the fn key + f7 key together - do this as the system is booting
If that does not work, try going into the display advanced features - not sure if you have vista or XP or windows - post back what you have , and look for a setting for TV out
You could try using the system restore in windows. Under start-->acc-->system tools. Select a restore point and restore to that state. Just try to backup your data before doing this. Hope this helps!
