System crashed, have reinstalled but now can't switch on wifi.

Guapa1

Hope someone can help.
My system kept coming up with error code 0x00000024 and I ended up reinstalling xp with a cd belonging to my mum. I have to add a huge thanks to browntoa, big john and donnie, whose advice I used from old threads.

So now I've reinstalled xp and have seem to have lost my wifi connection. I can't find it in network connections. I've tried using help, but it's useless. Anyone have any ideas?
Oh and not as important, but annoying, the font is huge like it is in safe mode, how do I get it normal again?


I'm connecting now through my phone so can't open any huge links, or download anything to help.


Thanks for reading x

Have you downloaded all the drivers - see device manager, there should be no yellow/exclamation question marks

oh ok in other devices they all have yellow exclamation marks. How do I install them? I don't have any cds for this laptop?

Usually available from the manufacturers website

ah, see that's the thing, I can't get on it! Any other suggestions?

If it doesn't work with a hard wired lan connection to your router, and you have no driver disk available, you will have to use a different pc, or ask a friend to download them, starting with the network card and video drivers.
