network problem

I had to reinstall windows xp. Now it says my wireless network card is disconnected. It shows it in device manager and says it working properly, but when i go to network setup wizard it says its disconnected. I can not connect to internet

dell inspiron 1300 laptop

xp

 

Has this network ever worked? If so, do these:

1. delete the driver from device manager. restart pc. let xp install the driver.

2. click start, run, enter "cmd" minus quotes, enter these commands:

netsh int ip reset c:\resetlog.txt
ipconfig /flushdns

3. Restart pc. Try your network. You may have to reconfigure your network if it uses a static IP.

 

Or try right clicking on your wireless network icon in the task bar and select a network to enter and reput in your key.
