Intel PROset/Wireless connection and Driver problems

Dell Inspiron 6000

OS Windows XP SP2 Home Edition

Wireless Card – Intel (R) PRO/ Wireless 2200BG Network Connection-

Intel Wireless Connection Agent Miniport

 

On two previous occasions I have booted my PC up and noticed that the Intel PROset/Wireless programme didn’t load and I was unable to connect to the Internet. After rebooting the computer it reappeared and I could connect to the Internet.

 

After completing a routine windows error check the PROset/Wireless programme failed to load and I couldn’t gain access to the Internet. After rebooting, the issue wasn’t resolved. I also preformed a couple of successful system restores, using different dates, but they failed to resolve the issue.

 

I have looked under the hardware device manager and it says the wireless card has an error and its driver cannot be located or is missing. This is symbolised by a black exclamation mark in a yellow circle. Also, the Intel icon on the taskbar, when hovering the curser above it – states “No supported wireless adaptors available in the system”

 

Could you please advise on how I can resolve this problem? I am currently connected to my broadband network on a spare Belkin Wireless USB stick I have installed on my laptop.

 

Thank you

David

    schristensen1,
     
    I refuse to try to solve two peoples problems in the same thread. It gets way to confusing.  I am helping David6431 in this thread.  If you want help, please start you own thread and have some consideration for David6431.

    Hey Steve,
     
    I'm having the same problem as the guy in this disscussion.  I downloaded the link that you gave for the Intel wireless 2200.  But now I get an popup saying that "my intel cannot detect  a supported wireless adapter.  Please install supported wireless adapter."
     
    Can you point my in the right direction to fix this problem?
     
    Thanks, and I appreciate your help,
