Dell 6000/Linksys wireless problems (Code: 10)

I am having huge problem's with my Linksys WPC54GX http://www.linksys.com/servlet/Sate...827233&pagename=Linksys/Common/VisitorWrapper

and my dell 6000. I used to have no problems with these 2 devices working together before. But, one day I pluged in my linksys adapter to connect to my school network when the device would not start. I disabled the /renablled the device and nothing would work. SO I unistalled/reinstalled the drivers that didn't work. I said to forget it I'll fix it later so the next day at school it worked perfectly fine untill I shut my laptop and opened it again then it didn't work. SO the next day I put it the adapter and it worked perfectly. So, when I shutdown my PC and started it back up the next period I got the same error (The device cannot start Code: 10) This got me so angry that I deleted my partitoned and reinstalled XP .Now that didn't work, so I have no clue what the problem is so could someone help me plez.

Edit: I just slapped it in and it works again. But, I closed the lid and it didn't turn back on.
