I had a really slow computer (acer aspire one) with windows 7, so i decided to install ubuntu to make it faster. Everything went smooth but now when i'm in it i have a problem, it doesn't show any wireless connections and the light on my wireless adapter doesn't shine. I tried restarting and also checking several times if my adapter is on. Are there any solutions for this? Really need help please.

There may be a problem with the drivers Ubuntu's using if it's only giving you this issue in the Ubuntu installation. If the laptop has an ethernet port and you have a cable, try hooking that up temporarily and typing sudo apt-get update && sudo apt-get upgrade
into a terminal and see if any package updates come up. These might hold a solution.
