Guilherme's comment (#66) is confirmed to be a working solution to this issue. I too had the same issue on my Lenovo Ideapad S10-3 netbook. I first took the netbook apart to reset the CMOS as posted above in another fix but once booted in either Windows 7 or Ubuntu 11.04 , the wireless card would not work.
After installing the Windows 7 Broadcom Wireless LAN Driver and the Lenovo Energy Management driver, I rebooted (just as a good measure) and went back into windows and hit fn + f5 and selected "turn on". By default, when the above drivers are installed, it may appear that the problem still exists which is where you will need to use the Fn + f5 to turn it back on. After which I then booted into Ubuntu 11.04 and confirmed that the wireless did in fact work there as well.
