Hello,

I have reinstalled my machine from vista to XP (SP2).
After reinstalling all drivers (except one I cannot find, audio bus), I can only connect via ethernet but get an error message (unable to connect to...) when I try to use the WIFI connection.
I saw many posts from people having the same problem but none seem to be working (or maybe I am not doing what I should)
Can someone help ?
Thanks in advance..

Hello

If ur audio device is an HD u must install the Microsoft UAA package before running its audio driver.

For ur Wifi driver tell the brand and the model of ur computer.
hi,
My laptop is a Dell Vostro 1400.
You think I cannot connect because I don't have the right driver?
I do have access to the Net but only via wire.
Hope this helps...
Let me know
