The trick that worked for me, was to start the Realtek driver setup in Vista compatibility mode. Under standard Win7 mode it just terminated with a message that it wouldn't work for that OS version.

Got windows 7 working on this hardware. Get the latest vista driver direct from realtek, wifi started working for me. That is cersion 5_6.9067.0710.2008. Also, ethernet can be had directly from JMicron's website (it's a JMC260). Have a few other missing drivers at this point in 7 but now i can handle it from the netbook. Hope this helps.

Ah, I'm not the only one having problems. Finally I also ended with the installation of good old XP.
But: til now I couldn't get that UMTS modem working. Google “said” that I might have to make some firmware/bios-update?!? But who is the manufacturer of that notebook?
Nearly 40 hours of harcore try-and-error but the UMTS modem has to be “activated” before drivers can be installed. The activation key (+<ß> or <_> in US) won't activate anything

It could be that it's an issue with WPA and WPA2 (I only tried those). At ekon there was an open WLAN. I didn't get back to Hadi yet - I don't know if he tried with a secured WLAN ...

Did you ask Hadi about Windows 7? As far as I understood it, he did install Windows 7 on the Intellibook and I don't remember him mentioning any problems…
