Sweex LW057V2 connection drops regularly

Options
I have the Sweex LW057V2 wireless network card and ever since I got a new hard drive for my computer it will connect to my wireless network okay but then every so often (at least once a day) it will lose signal and it won't find any wireless networks not even ours.

When I installed the new hard-drive I used the CD-rom to install the wireless software and I am thinknig maybe this is the problem? I tried to find a new driver for the card but I can only downlad a driver where the is no .exe file to install it for me.

Is there a way to rectify this problem?

    This is very much dependent on what OS you have, but generally in Windows, if you go to Control Panel, System, Device Manager, highlight the device in question, right-click and choose Update Driver, it will then let you browse for and install the updated driver.
