Thanks for the replies guys, much appreciation, well my sis had to go back to Oregon on Sunday, so i only had the weekend to try and get Linux lite working on her laptop, everything was fine other than the wifi not working which was the main thing she needed.
I spend like 6 hr online trying everything i could find or read including the things posted here, and it still wouldn't see any networks.
I was so hoping it would have worked as i had hyped up Linux to her, since it worked great on my Dell 1525 i figured her laptop was even a little more modern that it would be perfect, she actually liked it a lot other than no wifi, i guess the wifi card in her laptop is know to not be great for Linux, of course my luck after hyping it up to her.
Anyway i just put win 7 back on for her and she got a virus got virus protection, it was all i could do.
If she visit again i'll try the wrapper for her wifi card i want to convert her darn it!
In all fairness i tried a few other Distros on it as well and all had the wifi problem >
I will def stick around as Linux Lite works great on my stuff, and my Little bro wants to dabble in it so i'll help him install, and ill def make a donation.
Thanks, Lite 2.0 is really nice.
