new hard drive killed the wireless?

Question

Inspiron 600m   The hard drive died.  Got it replaced.  Reloaded the hard drive, including the wireless driver - Intel PRO 2200.  System does not recognize the card - tells me no wireless adaptors available.  AAAAARGH!  Now what?

After reinstalling Windows, did you install the drivers in the correct order?  The notebook system software and chipset drivers must be installed before even attempting to install other device drivers:   http://support.dell.com/support/topics/global.aspx/support/dsn/en/document?c=us&docid=1A0C0937D62A8739E0401E0A55174744&journalid=4F1F82483DC811DBAE564F9328EE04A4&l=en&s=gen   Steve
