        Go to device manager and see if there any problems with your wirelees card. Try reinstalling the driver and reboot....Start by deleting the existing network device in device manager.


        Never argue with a stupid person, they'll drag you down to their level and beat you with experience.

          Can you go into network and sharing then manage network connections right click on wireless and enable it.
          Or do the same but when you right click go to properties and see what it says about the driver there.
