I used the Dell restore disk to reformat and reinstall Windows XP on
my friend's old Dell notebook (about 5-yrs old). I also installed the
drivers that came
on the Dell cd and installed Service Pack 2 from a CD and everything
seems to work ok, except the D-Link WiFi card that connects through
the PCMIA slot. I downloaded the drivers for it and rebooted
several times, though it seems that Windows does not recognize it. She
has an existing wifi network in her house that I am trying to connect
to.
1. Other Windows computers I have seen seem to have a small icon in
the right side of the lower task bar that shows the status of the
internet connection. When you double click on it it opens the
available connections, etc. This one does not. How can I make it
display?
2. Does anyone have any advice for what I might be able to do to make
this recognize the card and connect to the web?
Thanks to everyone for your help and suggestions!!!!!!!!!!!

Based on the phrasing and words you've used, you should not be messing
with anyone's computer but your own. You don't understand the conecpts
needed yet and need more experience.
