WiFi not working after Bluetooth installation

I have a XPS M12010 with a 1500 Wireless Mini Card installed (running Vista). It has worked fine with my wireless router for a while now, but yesterday I installed the 350 bluetooth network card and now it doesnt connect to my router.
 
It works in that way that I se my wireless network and the signal strength is perfekt, but when I try to connect, it just won´t.
 
I have uninstalled the bluetooth software as well as the hardware, and I have done a System Restore to the point just before the bluetooth istallation. Still not working...
 
Some background information:
- Just before I installed the hardware windows had some updates installed and I didn't restart my computer. Instead I shut it off, installed the BT-hardware and turned it on.
 
- I have other computers connecting to the router so I´m sure it works.
 
- I have tried to disable/enable the device
 
- I have tried to disable/enable WPA on the router.
 
 
I hade looong talk with the technical support at dell yesterday, but they had never heard of it.
 
Does anyone know can be wrong ??

Finaly.. problem solved!
After spending another couple of hours searching for the error (basically I have tried whatever I thought of..) Flash the bios, re-instal the drivers for the wireless network card (again) probably did it..
So now it's working.
