Today I used a recovery disk on my laptop to simply reinstall the operating system on it. It was not a disc that was provided by the company (it is an IBM disk, I used it on an HP laptop.)

The laptop seems to be functioning properly all except for one thing:

I cannot connect to any wireless networks.
I cannot even see the "Wireless Network" icon in any of my "Network Places" or "Connect To" menus.

It is running on XP.
It has an "Intel(R) Pro/100 VE Network Connection" Network Adapter.
Under other devices in "Device Manager" there is a "Network Controller" however anytime I try to instal this driver I get the "cannot find the necesary software."

What I need help with (if it is not clear already) is connecting to the Internet wirelessley. I AM able to connect through the "Local Area Connection" directly through my router / modem.

If you need any other details, just ask, all help is appreciated.
 
This is due to you not having your wireless driver installed. You need to use the disc that came with your wireless adapter/card and install the software, or go download it from the provider's website on a different computer and use a USB to transfer the data to your PC (or use wired connection to DL the driver(s). This will fix your problem.

Edit: Added you on MSN to guide you through it.
