Dell Vostro 1500 Network Help!
I recently recieved the BSoD upons starting up my laptop. After reinstalling Windows XP, I'm not able to locate my wireless router anymore. I've check Network Connections and Tried MAke a New Connection but it did not find my router. The router is working perfectly on the other computers, but since the BSoD and reinstallation my laptop does not find it? Also, the little light that shows I'm connected does not light up anymore, nor does the one next to the WLAN switch..Could it be the drivers or anything? I'm really in a hole here, and would appreciate any help
EDIT: It looks like its not even in the device manager under network adapter. All I see is the 1394 NA, but before there was two.I put in the drivers cd and installed everything on there, so how can I get the driver I need??

Upon doing a reload you need to install Notebook system software and chipset drivers first before installing any other drivers. On some dell systems you have to enable wireless nic using the FN+F2 keys. You can find the drivers for your system here.
