It's most likely a graphics driver issue with GNOME Desktop and your laptop's onboard graphics. You could try a different Linux distro like OpenSUSE or Mandriva and select KDE desktop instead of GNOME.
Other than that, it'll probably involve booting into the command line, installing drivers and mucking about with config files. Yuk!

Would've though I learnt my lesson after my whole loss of everything on my old desktop. Just cba though :/

No native support for it's onboard graphics then, maybe?
I'd still try another distro before delving into drivers and all that though...

...Installed the latest driver for the wireless card? How does it show up in device manager? Red 'X' or Exclamation mark?
