Wireless connectivity?
I am not very computer literate, so this will seem like a stupid question. How do I determine whether a computer has wireless connectivity?
I have a Dell Dimension 9200 running Windows Vista that I bought in 2007. Previously, I have connected it to the internet using an ethernet cable to my router, but this is no longer possible now that my new computer is using the ethernet connection. I want to establish a wireless connection between my older Dell Dimension 9200 and my router, but I don't know how to find out whether the computer is capable of wireless connectivity.
I would appreciate it if someone could advise me about this.
Best wishes,
Bob Ellis

You need to extract the file and then right click on it and 'Run as Administrator', if this is not possible then right click on Computer select 'manage' and in the window which opens, expand 'Network Adapters' and post a screen shot of the same.

I tried this, following each step carefully, but when I clicked on the downloaded programme as an administrator nothing happened at all. I repeated the process and still got nothing.
