Update: laptop back and all is working well, windows 7 ultimate installed with Microsoft office 2007 and Microsoft security essentials. All wireless drivers work, connects fine to wifi, checked at my cousins, my mums and mine just to be sure!
I went to samsungs website, searched for my laptop and the relevant drivers, upon download then installation of the new driver of samsungs website, a window would pop up saying installation had failed due to an incompatible/ missing adapter.
It's back with my cousin now and he's starting it...
Welcome.
Do yourself a favour and don't buy the tint, it will look gash. On the MOT part, I guess it would depend on your tester and how severe the tint is. My rear lights are lightly smoked, a dick move and i hate it, but it passed its mot the 2 previous times.
Use the search feature, if...
Same thing happened to me a few months ago mate, and tbh, I'm still find random bits of glass every now and then despite hoovering the car on numerous occasions, they left my Sony stereo, raybans, iPod touch, satnav, the lot.

Edit: it's running windows 7 so layout may be different?
Haha tell me about it! I was giving it by a family member as it was busted (dodgy hard drive) so it only owes me £40 for the hard drive I payed for.

Also, the Microsoft essentials antivirus and the...
I've tried downloading/reinstalling the drivers from the Samsung website for this specific laptop, bang them on a USB then copy and extract into my laptop, run the setup wizard and it says the driver install has failed due to missing the relevant adapter?
No luck finding an Ethernet cable, it was fine on the first boot up, looks like ill be handing it back to my cousin to re-install any network adapters/drivers as I'm not having much luck my end.
Thanks for all your help chaps
Double checked the wifi button as that was the first thing I tried, I've activated it and deactivated it but nothing works. Ill see what happens when I plug it in by Ethernet
So i recently had my hard drive replaced in my laptop (samsung np300e5a-a05dx) as the previous one was corrupted and causing my laptop to stay in the start up loop.
My cousins the computer know-it-all in my family, so he replaced the hard drive with a like-for-like replacement, re-installed...
