I just reinstalled a new partition and Windows XP on my brothers laptop. But i need help setting it up. Theirs nothing their >.<
yeah im a newb when it comes to this
what i need help on is
-how do u connect to the wireless internet (i don't even know if i got the driver for my wireless internet connection thingy)
umm yeah,. that's about it, i already know how to download the rest of the drivers..
help
For checking drivers, you can go Start » Run » compmgmt.msc » Device Manager
If you see anything with yellow exclamation marks, it means you don't have the driver for it (so you'd probably need to do Google searches for them).
Never set up wireless before, so IDK. It's probably mainly a wizard based setup.
thanks, i think that's all i really needed.
Im gonna try it out when i get home though.
if you already have a wifi router at your home then all you do is make windows search for it then connect to it by double clicking the name of your router. And if needed enter password
The wizard will pop up when you have the wireless thingy on and it finds wireless networks around.
Also, if you don't see nothing, you can do a fresh install, or do a repair installation.

yeah i did do a fresh install of xp already, but now i can't find my wireless settings. therefor i can't even make windows search for any wireless modems or my router.
