Wireless fails to work after reinstalling XP SP2
Here's the mess I've gotten myself into
Almost a week ago, my computer did automatic updates and installed XP SP3. The following morning, it crashed with the blue screen of death. I put the XP startup disk that came with the computer back in, and while Windows works, all my communication cards (ethernet, wireless, Bluetooth) still didn't work. I downloaded the drivers for the ethernet and bluetooth cards from Dell's website (i have an Inspiron E1505 laptop), and those work fine now. However, installing the updated driver for the wireless card has yielded no results. How can I get my wireless card to work again?

Hey there,
The wireless driver might only work on Vista, try the IT Administrators - Intel® PROSet/Wireless WiFi Connection Utility for Windows* XP and Windows Vista*from here
First uninstall the one you have though..
Hope this helps
