I just reinstalled windows XP Home on my old laptop, and for some reason I can't access the internet-through LAN or wireless. Before I reinstalled the OS I could access the internet just fine, so is there maybe some driver I'm missing?

winxp would not have any drives for those devices ,so you need to go to the laptop makers website and get winxp drivers for your model

Ahh, I get it now. Thanks for the response, I went and got my driver disk and it works great now!
