Hi,
My uncle gave my dad an old compaq laptop, and I have a dlink router+adapter to use with it (my uncle used the same model before too.)
I reinstalled windows on it so now its a fresh xp media edition, and when i plug in the adapter no setup pops up.
I installed the drivers from the cd, restarted, nothing worked. Tried it 2 times. But when i go to network connections theres only local area connection but no wireless. Thus I cant connect to my wifi network from that comp in any way.
Please help!

Jump to PostHey, AFAIK wireless card comes by default on most of the laptop models. Could you please tell me the exact laptop model so that I check the configuration and can point you to the latest drivers for the wireless card. I am sure that you haven't installed the wireless drivers …
