Hey guys,

I recently got a used PC off of a client I had been working with. I had Ubuntu Linux running on it, and now I've wiped that off and installed XP Pro. Problem is, the computer has a wifi card installed but I cannot get XP to recognize it. All it recognizes is the ethernet adapter. Any suggestions?

Thanks

you are probably missing the drivers. Try checking the website of the manufactorer of the computer and install the drivers.

Can i download them to a flash drive from another computer, or do I need to hook up a wired internet connection to do it?

Either way works. As long as you're doing that I suggest you also get your chipset drivers and install them first, then the networking ones.

what's the difference between them? I found the driver download for the card.
